There are many health benefits of saffron , rose, cardamom and rock candy.
Saffron is good for heart, boost memory, it works against depression, helps in PMS treatment and is anti cancer too.
Rose buds/ petals boost immune system, has anti inflammatory property, reduced period cramps, lifts mood, lowers B.P etc.
Cardamom has anti oxidant and diuretic properties, helps in digestion....etc.
Rock Candy / Mishri improves memory and eases mental fatigue.
