Saffron contains more than 150 volatile and aroma-yielding compounds. It also has many nonvolatile active components, many of which are carotenoids, including zeaxanthin, lycopene, and various ?- and ?-carotenes. However, saffron's golden yellow-orange colour is primarily the result of ?-crocin. This crocin is trans-crocetin di-(?-D-gentiobiosyl) ester (systematic (IUPAC) name: 8,8-diapo-8,8-carotenoic acid). This means that the crocin underlying saffron's aroma is a digentiobiose ester of the carotenoid crocetin. Crocins themselves are a series of hydrophilic carotenoids that are either monoglycosyl or diglycosyl polyene esters of crocetin. Meanwhile, crocetin is a conjugated polyene dicarboxylic acid that is hydrophobic, and thus oil-soluble. When crocetin is esterified with two water-soluble gentiobioses (which are sugars), a product results that is itself water-soluble. The resultant ?-crocin is a carotenoid pigment that may comprise more than 10% of dry saffron's mass. The two esterified gentiobioses make ?-crocin ideal for colouring water-based (non-fatty) foods such as rice dishes.

ExirTM Saffron tea makes a delicious energizing and refreshing herbal tea with a wealth of health benefits. Organic, Contains No caffeine. Here is a review of Dear Pharmacist, Dr. Suzy Cohen regarding Exir Saffron. Saffron imparts a distinctive taste and aroma along with a lovely yellow color to a variety of exotic dishes. I stir it into rice, soups and teas. As a pharmacist who pays attention to alternative remedies, I can't help but note that any herb that's been used for centuries likely has something going for it. Sure enough, researchers are starting to verify the amazing healing potential of saffron in clinical studies. Saffron is a super strong antioxidant with "housekeeping" benefits that clean you up from head to toe. Pay attention here because I'm going to summarize the research. Saffron has ... effects, for all sorts of ..... It enhances male fertility. It helps relieve anxiety and tension. And ladies, it eases the discomforts of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). In Texas, researchers proved that saffron improves circulation to the retina so it's a promising treatment for macular degeneration, a major cause of blindness. One clinical trial concluded "preliminary evidence of a possible therapeutic effect of saffron extract in the treatment of mild-to-moderate memory loss." It's also an anti-spasmodic. Whew! Do you see why I think Saffron is one of the best kept health secrets?! If you'd like to try a saffron supplement - and I've just begun taking one myself - make sure you buy from a reputable company, such as Exir. I have to warn you, pure authentic saffron is expensive, but worth it. Fake makers of it cut the saffron with other yellow-orange spices but Exir is 100 percent saffron, and they source from organic flowers. It's not popular (yet) so you will need to ask your local health food store to order it, or just buy it online like I did at Epicure Garden.
