Saffron incense sticks 

The scent of saffron is not only used in our saffron incense sticks.

Saffron and the different colors:

Saffron is a spice with antioxidants. This means detoxifying agents are released. Saffron has a distinctive smell and an extremely intense color. This goes from orange or dark red to sometimes going into the purple to reddish brown. In addition, saffron is incredibly productive.

The production of saffron:

By the way, saffron is produced from the Crocus sativus, which belongs to the genus of lilies. The final result comes from the so-called pistils (threads) of the flower. This also explains why saffron is one of the most expensive spices in the world. It all has to be harvested by hand. Afterwards the threads are still heated and hardened. This is another reason to justify the price. However, our saffron incense sticks are affordable.

Saffron and the effects on health:

Saffron and Alzheimer's disease:

Due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, saffron is said to have a positive influence on Alzheimer's disease. One study concluded that improvements can occur in mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The study gave subjects 30 mg of saffron daily for 22 weeks. However, more tests would have to be conducted to possibly cure Alzheimer's with saffron.

Saffron for depression:

Saffron is also said to be helpful against depression without attacking serotonin levels. 30 mg per day is said to have a similar effect as taking antidepressants such as fluoxetine or imipramine, for example.

Saffron and PMS:

There was another study with 35 women. They were exposed to the smell of saffron for 20 min. The aim of this study was to clarify the effects of saffron scent on women-specific symptoms such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS), dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain) and irregular menstruation.

How the smell can affect PMS patients:

The study concluded that there is indeed a relationship between saffron, odor and the mode of action from the physiological and psychological points of view. Thus, this was the first report that suggested that saffron odor can be effective in the treatment of PMS.

Saffron as an aphrodisiac:

In addition, saffron is also said to increase sex drive in both men and women. In men, this has also been demonstrated, but without affecting semen quality. In women who took 30 mg daily for 4 weeks, a massive increase was observed. Previously, the test subjects suffered from sexual hypofunction. This was due to the intake of fluoxetine (antidepressants). Accordingly, saffron is the purest aphrodisiac.

The effect of using the saffron incense sticks:

When smoking, fragrances are released. Fragrances are said to have different effects. Saffron incense sticks can have an aphrodisiac and antispasmodic effect.

The application of saffron incense sticks:

Often the use of incense is associated with Buddhism, Hinduism or Daoism. They are used both in meditation and in ceremonies, for example in a shaman's cleansing. The smoke is said to have a purifying effect.
