Saffron, often called the golden spice, is known for its rich aroma, beautiful color, and many health benefits. At Herati Saffron, we always encourage using saffron responsibly. But like any natural product, saffron isn’t suitable for everyone — especially in large doses or supplement form.
Here’s what you need to know before using pure saffron or premium saffron in your diet.
- Pregnant Women
While saffron adds wonderful flavor to food, high doses can stimulate the uterus and may cause complications or miscarriage. Expecting mothers should enjoy saffron only in small culinary amounts and avoid supplements or strong saffron teas.
- People with Low Blood Pressure
Saffron can naturally lower blood pressure. If you already have low BP or take medication for it, consuming too much saffron might lead to dizziness or weakness.
- People with Mood Disorders
Saffron has mild effects on brain chemicals such as serotonin. This means people with bipolar disorder or mood instability should consult their doctor before using saffron regularly, as it could interfere with certain medications.
- People with Allergies
Although rare, some people may be allergic to saffron or plants from the same family (like lilies). Allergic reactions can include skin rash, itching, or breathing problems. Always test a small amount first if you’ve never used saffron before.
- Those Taking Specific Medications
Saffron may interact with some medicines, such as:
Antidepressants – May increase serotonin levels too much
Blood pressure drugs – Can enhance their effects
Blood thinners – May raise bleeding risk
If you’re on any of these, talk to your healthcare provider before using Herati Saffron.
- People Preparing for Surgery
Because saffron can slightly slow blood clotting, doctors often recommend stopping saffron use at least two weeks before surgery to reduce risks.
Safe and Smart Use
When used in small amounts, saffron is one of the world’s healthiest and most luxurious spices. Herati Saffron is carefully sourced and tested to ensure purity, making it safe for daily culinary use.
Enjoy your saffron responsibly — a few threads can turn an ordinary dish into a masterpiece while keeping your body balanced and healthy.
