One specific benifit is its capability to treat nerve related pain. Before 3 years, my mother had Sciatica and after getting treatment from many places, the pain didn't seem to go away. One of my colleagues then told me about preparing a drink with the leaves of this plant. He instructed me to boil some 250g leaves in around 2 litres of drinking water until water becomes light black.Then, to throw the leaves and mix one gram of pure saffron in it. Then, to regularly serve 30 ML of this drink to my mother and within just 15 days my mother started to feel much better and after just one month the Sciatica pain disappeared and never came back.
