It is a myth that if pregnant ladies take saffron the babies will be fair.
Saffron doesn't have any role in this and the complexion of the child is based on our genes.
But it is beneficial to pregnant ladies.
Pregnant ladies can take saffron from 5th month to 9th month as it purifies the blood.
If can be taken after delivery to prevent anaemia and increases appetite.
But it should be taken in limited quantity.
If pregnant ladies are affected by cold and cough it affects the babies health.
Saffron is a best medicine to prevent cold and cough.
As saffron is sour you can use it for facial.
It is good for digestion.
Add a pinch of saffron after cooking and it gives nice fragrance as well as improves the taste of the food.
It is good for cold, cough, cancer, eye problems and cures mouth ulcer.
So far we saw what are the benefits of saffron and now we are going to see how to find whether it is pure.
If you put 4-5 flowers in hot water it will dissolve and the water changes in golden colour.
It will give good fragrance and the colour will be coming out for 24 hours and then it is pure.
But colour will ooze out from duplicate flower immediately when put in water and there will be no fragrance.
