The fruits, or seeds, of Apium graveolens are a warming, slightly bitter spice often used in culinary dishes. Celery seed can be added to spice blends, marinades, pickling recipes, and beverage mixes. In herbalism, the seeds are prepared as a tea or extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Greeks and Romans called it \"smallage\" and harvested it in the wild for its medicinal properties. The Romans used it more for cooking. When it was finally grown and harvested in the Middle Ages, it was found to be a wonderful vegetable to add to the dinner table. It was not until the 19th century that the seeds were used as a spice in recipes and pickling. It was associated with funerals and bad luck, and woven garlands of wild celery were often found in Egyptian tombs. The celery used in herbal medicine is a close relative of the celery you can buy in market. The fruit, or \"seed,\" is grayish-green to brown, with a characteristic slightly bitter, spicy taste. Too much celery seed can overpower a dish, whereas a little brings out flavors in other foods. Celery seed is used in pickles, casseroles, and Bloody Mary’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApium graveolens is a member of the Apiaceae family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eActive Compounds:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Volatile oils (limonene, selenine \u0026amp; phthalide compounds including phtalidglycosides), Flavonoids (apigenin, apiin, luteolin, chrysoeriol \u0026amp; quercitin), Furanocoumarins, Fatty acids (linoleic, myristic, oleic, palmitic, stearic, and petroselinic), Alkaloids, Vitamins C, beta-carotene, \u0026amp; Minerals (sodium, calcium, iron, potassium)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eActions\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cem\u003eAnti-inflammatory, Antimicrobial, Anti-rheumatic, Bitter, Carminative,  Antispasmodic, Diuretic, Emmenagogue, Galactagogue, Hypotensive, and Nervine relaxant\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e Celery seeds are used in herbal medicine primarily to treat arthritis, gout, and muscle spasms due to their anti-inflammatory properties, and to act as a diuretic to support kidney health and lower blood pressure.
