Celery Seed Powder, 1oz.

Wild celery, also known as smallage, is native to southern Europe and is cultivated in various regions worldwide. A member of the Umbelliferae family, characterized by its umbrella-shaped flower heads, celery is closely related to parsley, fennel, carrot, and chervil. While its stalk is widely consumed as a vegetable, celery is also valued for its seeds, which are among the smallest of vegetable seeds—requiring over a million to equal a pound in weight.

In herbal traditions, celery seed is sometimes utilized for its potential diuretic properties. It also holds a long history of use in alternative medicine systems, such as Ayurveda, for addressing conditions like colds and flu.
