Abstract
Crocus sativus Linn (Iridaceae) is well-known for its various domestic and medicinal uses throughout the tropics and subtropics. This plant is helpful because it contains various compounds, including crocetin, crocin, and other flavonoids, which may be used to cure various illnesses. These compounds, particularly crocin, have depressive and anti-inflammatory characteristics, as well as anticancer, analgesic, and other therapeutic effects on various areas of the body, including the heart, respiratory system, genital-urinary system, and central nervous system. According to research and observations, chemoprevention, cell proliferation, antioxidant and obesity effects, apoptosis, lipid peroxidation, and anti-inflammatory processes all have a role in saffron's involvement in treating various food allergies. Since ancient times, saffron has been utilized in traditional medicine in India and other Asian nations. Chemical compounds have been researched for a range of qualities, with many studies focusing on the chemicals found in, or even the medicinal components of, plants.
