Celery seed

Also known as: Apium graveolens seed

Celery seed contains an essential oil and compounds such as 3-n-butylphthalide and apigenin. It is traditionally used as a diuretic and for gout and joint complaints, but human studies are almost absent.

What it is used for

  • gout and uric acid – weak evidence, mostly traditional use and animal studies
  • a modest reduction in blood pressure – weak evidence from small studies

Forms and how they differ

extract capsules

sometimes standardised to 3-n-butylphthalide

ground seed

a spice, low dose

When to take it

With food, during the day.

Pairs well with

Plenty of water; tart cherry.

Do not combine / separate

Do not combine with diuretics, blood pressure medicines, blood thinners or sedatives without asking your doctor.

Watch out for

Not suitable during pregnancy (traditionally considered a uterine stimulant) or breastfeeding, with kidney disease or with celery allergy (including cross-reactions with birch pollen or carrot). During pregnancy or breastfeeding, with kidney or liver disease, or when taking medicines, consult your doctor.

Safety

May increase skin sensitivity to sunlight. Do not exceed the label dose.

Practical tip

If you are allergic to birch pollen, be careful – celery allergy is often linked to it.
