Our philosophy is based on the belief that the more people we can help to improve their sight, the better. We are not prepared to substitute the quality of our saffron for cheaper imitations of dubious origin. Your ongoing success with our saffron is our success.
I was surprised to read that the spice saffron (in regulated doses of 20 mgs of saffron), was being tested in medical and scientific studies (most recently at the National University of Australia and Sydney University) because of it's apparent ability to not just halt MD but in cases of early detection, actually reverse the physical symptoms.
Frustrated, I Googled 'saffron/NZ'.
To my amazement, I found this most desirable of spices was being grown and harvested very succesfully in New Zealand.
And for the most part, the quality of the Kiwi saffron was superb ... as good as, if not better than anything available anywhere else in the world. (probably better)
But the demand for New Zealand grown saffron was so high, there was none available to buy.
At this point, I was running out of options.
I took another punt and found Crocus Sativus corms for sale online here in NZ.
I took a deep breath and purchased a large number of New Zealand saffron corms to start my own saffron farm.
And because I needed to accurately produce tablets each containing 20mg of saffron I bought a set of micro-scales from the US and commisioned the manufacture of the 20mg tablets. By growing my saffron in a plant bed.
However, Government regulations state that although I can sell you saffron directly, I cannot promote or make any claims as to it's efficacy re AMD or ARMD.
I am not permitted to promote or sell saffron as a treatment.
If you choose to purchase saffron from me, you may do so and you are able to use it to whatever purpose you choose.
If you or someone you know would like to try our 20 mg saffron tablets, please indicate your interest through the "Contact Us" page.
There is a direct email link to me on this page as well.
We are now needing to import excellent quality saffron from Australia, as our ranks of saffron users swells.
I have produced a small 'saffron drop', a 100mg tablet containing a little more than 20 mg of saffron for daily use @ 1 per day.
They taste, well, like saffron ... pretty crappy really. Not to be sucked like a lozenge or a lolly.
Three months supply will cost little more than NZ $1.00 per day.
We seriously recommend you have your eyes tested and the level of your visual acuity recorded by your specialist prior to joining the hundreds of Kiwis and overseas MD sufferers who are giving saffron a chance to make a difference in their lives.
And then get them re-tested again after your first three month session on the tablets.
In doing so, you might just make your Eyecare specialist aware that there ARE very positive alternatives to treating MD than those offered today .... treatments that really work.
Apparently, Saffron, in very large doses,(i.e. 10 grams in a single sitting) is not recommended for pregnant women. We also advocate against taking saffron in extreme doses.
