I was talking with a client today on our coaching call, and she has been struggling with anxiety a lot, mostly due to hormonal changes.
I have heard from a few friends now that swear by using Saffron for anxiety and depression and wanted to share!
If you are struggling, you may want to give this a try if you don't want to go the med route....
Saffron is known for its natural saffron anti-anxiety remedy. It has crocin, crocetin, and safranal. These help manage mood by affecting neurotransmitters. They boost serotonin, which makes us feel better.
How to Use Saffron for Anxiety:
Saffron is great for reducing anxiety through diet and supplements. Both ways are effective for better well-being. Each has unique benefits to improve your health.
Incorporating Saffron into Your Diet-
Adding saffron to meals is a good start. It boosts the taste of dishes like rice or soups. It also may offer health perks. Here are fun ways to use saffron in your meals:
- Add saffron threads to your favorite rice dishes for a rich color and flavor.
- Brew saffron tea to enjoy its soothing properties and antioxidants.
- Mix saffron into sauces or dressings for enhanced taste and health benefits.
Start with Saffron tea- just boil some water, add in 5-10 threads of saffron and add in honey or lemon if you like. Drink this daily or even twice a day to see how it helps!
I am going to start using this myself and will report back 😊
I recommend organic saffron, it's very inexpensive on amazon.
