If You Have Atherosclerosis, Saffron Could Make Your Life Better.

For people with atherosclerosis, the beautiful herb saffron can improve several aspects of your quality of life.

Recent research is showing saffron to be a remarkably powerful and versatile herb for both your mind and body.

Though its cardiovascular benefits are not yet much discussed, research has shown that it can reduce the severity of stroke symptoms (J Ethnopharmoacol. June 2019;238:111833), improve cholesterol (Clinical Nutrition ESPEN. June 2023;55:314-319) and improve quality of life in people with cardiovascular disease.

In this double-blind study, 58 people with atherosclerosis were given either a placebo or 100mg of saffron for 6 weeks.

In the saffron group total quality of life scores improved significantly while they got significantly worse in the placebo group. Quality of life scores for physical and social domains improved significantly more in the saffron group.

There were no adverse events.

This study suggests that saffron can safely improve quality of life for people with atherosclerosis.
