Saffron: The Holy Grail, The "Happy Spice", The "Thing" that you need to know more about
Just 30 mg of saffron can be equally effective as Prozac for moderate depression and anxiety... and that's just ONE of many reasons you need to know more about saffron...
Not many people know about this, but Nikki Bostwick does, and now you will too...
We are talking about a natural remedy in this episode, and we think EVERYONE should know about it. There is an ancient plant that has long been used for mental health and wellness, digestion, sleep, pain relief, ADHD, period relief, fertility, menopause...so many common ailments. And that plant, saffron, is coming up in more and more in conversations for us as we and so many others look for natural remedies over pharmaceuticals. Even WebMD acknowledges that saffron may "alter mood, kill cancer cells, decrease swelling, and act like antioxidants."
So we wanted to talk to Nikki Bostwick, founder of The Fullest, because we were falling in love with some of her saffron products we have tried in the past few weeks. Nikki says, "Growing up as an Iranian American, I knew firsthand the benefits of the spice. My mother always had a vial of it in the fridge and I loved to take it by the dropperfuls because it would make me laugh and laugh and laugh." After all, its known as the "Happy Spice"! But when Nikki found that saffron helped her with her ADHD, aches and pains, menstrual cramps, even childbirth--she knew she had to share what she knew with others. And we LOVED learning from her the science behind saffron and know you will, too.
We learned SO MUCH in this episode, and we KNOW you will learn something…or A A LOT too. And you will have some laughs while listening and watching too (especially when we get to the vaginal steaming part - you’re welcome😉)!
We have been dying to get this information and our testimonies with saffron out to you, and we really hope you will share with your friends, family, and your doctor because we pretty sure your doctor doesn’t know about this!
🔥Here are just a FEW benefits of saffron…
Anxiety / Depression
This daily capsule provides the clinically studied doses of saffron and turmeric in relation to the treatment of depression and anxiety. Research has shown that saffron is just as effective as Prozac for treating moderate depression. This dose found in Kinder Thoughts® is an equally effective alternative to Prozac — without harmful side effects.
ADHD
New research is emerging that saffron may be an excellent treatment for those suffering from attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). More than that, this natural support is proven to have no negative side effects, especially in comparison to potentially addictive synthetics such as Ritalin.
Cramps
Saffron may be helpful for period cramps due to their potential anti-inflammatory and mood-enhancing properties, which could help alleviate pain and promote relaxation during menstrual cycles.
Fertility
Saffron can be helpful for fertility by potentially improving reproductive health, enhancing libido, and supporting hormonal balance.
Immunity
Saffron is naturally loaded with immune-supporting antioxidants and vitamins like riboflavin B1, B2, B6, and Vitamin C. In conjunction, saffron also is proven to support inflammation, which plays a key role in illness, disease, asthma, and allergies.
Pain Relief
Saffron is nature’s alternative to over the counter medication. In 2017, migraine researchers found that one of the key causes of migraines is inflammation — and that turmeric can help reduce inflammation in the body. That’s another reason why we formulated our Kinder Thoughts® saffron capsules; combining the benefits of saffron and turmeric in one capsule to bring you the over-the-counter medicine you need to combat pain, inflammation, headaches, and cramps.
Postpartum
Saffron can potentially promote mood balance, reduce symptoms of postpartum depression, and provide antioxidant support for overall well-being during the postpartum period.
Skin Conditions
Rich with antioxidants, saffron is naturally full of beauty benefits that have been clincally studied to heal and support: complexion, soothing the skin, reducing redness from blemishes, and providing anti-fungal properties. If you have a cut, turmeric can actually help wounds heal by decreasing inflammation and oxidation.

Excellent conversation, lots of information that can help younger girls and women. If we'd follow remedies used by our ancestors, we'd be much healthier. But the Rockefellers have made it difficult for those remedies to be available in the US.
North Carolina misses Dr. Rashid Buttar, who encouraged his followers to first approach natural remedies.
Thank you, ladies, for this very enjoyable and informative conversation. Your energy is contagious.
