## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the container has grinder to grind saffron?**
A: No. Basically is a plastic tube-like container with the saffron, inside a glass jar.  I just grind it with my fingers and put it in hot water for a little bit.  That does the trick.

**Q: Is there an expiration date printed on the jar?**
A: The product image shown on Amazon captures general information about a product. A best-by date is printed on each product and is different for each production batch. Best-by dates on our products are within typically 4 months or longer when sold through online retailers. You can view the best-by date on the product packaging upon receipt of your purchase. The date code is a 3-letter month, 2 digit date, and 2 digit year format; for example MAR0423.  If you have a concern about the best by date of a product you received, please contact Amazon.  ~ Erica

    Saffron: An Important Spice for Brain Health
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2011*

Saffron comes from the flower of the crocus plant (it's actually the plant's dried stigma) has a reddish thread-like appearance, and is a rich source of carotenoid antioxidants.Used since ancient times for a variety of medicinal purposes (saffron is known for its immune-boosting power, among others), in the modern day it is widely used in Persian, European, Indian and Turkish cooking, both for its unique sweet, grassy flavor and its ability to add vibrant yellow-orange color to foods.There are quite a few studies that reveal saffron's beneficial properties, and one of the most recent showed promise for treatment of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. In a 22-week, double-blind study of patients with Alzheimer's, a saffron supplement worked as well as the drug donepezil (brand name Aricept), but with significantly less vomiting experienced among the saffron group.The researchers noted:"This phase II study provides preliminary evidence of a possible therapeutic effect of saffron extract in the treatment of patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease."It is becoming increasingly clear that supplementing your diet with foods and supplements rich in a variety of compounds, such as vitamin E, folic acid, DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), and ALA (alpha-lipoic acid), may help reduce oxidative stress and delay the progression of age-related cognitive decline. And it appears saffron is no exception.Separate research has shown saffron to help prevent and treat dementia, and inhibit platelet aggregation (which can lead to blood clots) and lipid peroxidation (which causes cell damage). It's also known to have chemopreventive properties against cancer, which are also strongly associated with the common saffron alternative turmeric (which is often referred to as Indian saffron). While in China, Marco Polo in 1280 AD recorded information on turmeric in his diary:"There is also a vegetable which has all the properties of true saffron, as well the smell and the color, and yet it is not really saffron."So, turmeric has been used as a substitute for saffron (an old world spice) in Europe for over 700 years, and this spice has been found to have many of the same health advantages, including showing promise for Alzheimer's.If you've never tried saffron, the reason may be because it's earned the moniker "most expensive spice in the world." There are only three stigmas in each crocus flower, and it reportedly takes 80,000 flowers (about the number of plants on one acre of land) to produce one pound of saffron. Turmeric is much easier to come by and is also much less expensive, while offering many of the same potential health benefits, as well as the same characteristic yellow color.

    Nicely stored and great flavor
  

*by S***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2022*

Excellent value for the money. The strands of saffron came in a plastic capped tube within a sealed glass spice container. Lovely taste and fresh quality.

    McCormick Saffron 0.06 oz
  

*by T***A on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2023*

I was delighted to see the inside vial shown in the Amazon photo is actually full to the brim rather than half way as shown in the photo.  The saffron is delicious and I believe you can never go wrong buying from McCormick as they sell fresh products.  I truly am happy I purchased this product as one does not need to use but a pinch of saffron for any dish and there is quite a lot in the vial.  If you are thinking of buying I would say go for it. i happen to be very happy I did.
