Food &Fruit-Saffron
• Saffron means "yellow" in Arabic because when
used in cooking it confers a yellow tint to foods.
• Harvesting saffron requires intensive labor:
an estimated *5,**0 flowers are needed to produce just 1 lb. of
saffron, according to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
As a result, it may have the highest market value of all herbs in
the world.
• Unfortunately, saffron's purity is often
compromised. Marigolds and other herbs are often added illegally to
lower production costs. So be sure to buy saffron from a reputable
source.
• Saffron contains medicinal substances such as
vitamin B, crocin, a yellow flavonoid, picrocrocin, a bitter
glycoside, and safranal, a volatile, aromatic compound. A physician
should always be consulted prior to use saffron for medicinal
purposes.
