Organic Saffron. Saffron is a spice obtained from the flowers of the saffron crocus, a member of the iris family first cultivated in ancient Greece. Additionally, saffron, the most expensive spice in the world, is very expensive due to the amount of labor required to produce just a little saffron. Luckily, you need only a few threads in your recipe, making a gram enough for dozens of uses. Loaded with Zeaxanthin (and, to a lesser extent, lycopene and beta-carotene), vitamin B2, riboflavin and crocin. Seen as mostly a culinary herb, a new interest in herbal healing is saffron's new claim to fame. This herb is mentioned in the bible and was used by ancient Egyptians, Indians and Greeks alike.

Turmeric Organic. While beautiful in color, this spice is subtle, warm, slightly bitter, woodsy, and similar to ginger. A necessary ingredient in curry powders, yellow coloring agent, mustard, and Indian cooking. The spice that gives Indian curry its color, is greatly used in Indian medicine. Lately, turmeric has been getting massive attention as an anti-inflammatory and a strong cancer fighter. The chemical responsible for turmeric’s golden color, called circumin, is considered a top anticancer agent, helping to quell the inflammation that contributes to tumor growth. Lab studies show turmeric helps stop the growth and spread of cancer cells that do form. Studies have linked turmeric to reduced inflammation in a number of conditions, including, psoriasis. In animal studies, circumin decreased the formation of amyloid, the stuff that makes up the brain deposits characteristic in people with Alzheimer’s disease. Turmeric is now prescribed by doctors to combat inflammation. Now that's what we call pulling double duty!

For a tasty twist:

• Sprinkle 1/2 tsp onto 2 cups of hot  white rice
• add cilantro and drained black beans
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil and combine
• salt to taste
