The short answer is yes. In fact, along with its great taste, colour and aroma, the health benefits of saffron have been recognised for centuries.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most people know a little about saffron. They might recognise it is a spice and that it has a vibrant yellowish-orange colour.
