Nutrients of saffron
Saffron contains various minerals and vitamins, notably potassium, which helps control blood pressure and prevents spills. It is also a source of vitamins C, allied to immunity, and vitamin B6, which is beneficial to the brain.
The seasoning still counts on iron, which prevents anemias, manganese, essential for the metabolism of cholesterol and for growth, calcium, which is allied to bones and teeth, and magnesium, important for glucose metabolism. Protein, good for muscles, fat and a high content of soluble fiber, which improves intestinal transit, are also present in saffron.
