The Internet news feeds are alive with a potential new health use for one of the spices used in Indian cooking. The spice in question is saffron, which is often added to rice to give it a slightly bitter taste and a golden yellow color.
Australian and Italian scientists say that saffron improves eyesight and may prevent blindness.
A recent Curry Focus article described the saffron spice but, at the time, there was no indication that saffron could improve your vision.
There are a lot of Internet articles about this new research with a good one being on the Hindustan Times website.
We are all getting older so maybe this latest research will be of increasing interest to us all.
