hi,

In Asia pregnancy women was advice to take saffron because they beleive that if they took that regularly means the new born baby will be very fair.Is that right?

Usually saffron will be mixed in milk to take but i dont like the flavour of milk so can you please suggest me what are all the other options to take saffron.

thank you
