Celery seeds — which can be found either in whole seed form, extract form or ground-up. Have impressive health benefits on their own, as they help to lower inflammation and to fight bacterial infections. In some parts of the world, celery is grown primarily for its beneficial seeds. Which are actually a very small type of fruit.

Helps Lower High Cholesterol

Benefits of celery include its cholesterol lowering power that make it useful for improving or maintaining heart health. Celery contains a unique compound called  3-n-butylphthalide (BuPh) that has previously been reported to have lipid-lowering action.

But researchers believe celery has many other other beneficial compounds that are still emerging in research. The group supplementing with celery extract experienced a beneficial reduction in serum total cholesterol. Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglyceride concentrations.

Lowers Inflammation

Celery contains antioxidants. These support overall health, especially as someone ages. By fighting free-radical damage (or oxidative stress) that can lead to inflammation.

Inflammation is often a contributing cause of chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, arthritis and many more. Researchers have identified over a dozen different types of antioxidants that are responsible for the benefits of celery. These include such phenolic acids as caffeic acid and ferulic acid, plus flavaols like quecetin.

Helps Prevent or Treat High Blood Pressure

Celery seed extracts have anti-hypertensive properties that help reduce high blood pressure, one of the important risk factors for coronary heart disease that is the largest cause of mortality in industrial countries.

Benefits of celery seeds include potentially helping to control chronic elevated blood pressure levels. They experienced significant improvements in blood pressure levels compared to rats being fed the same diet but not receiving celery extract.

Protects Liver Health

When researchers from the Department of Nutrition and Food Science at Helwan University in Egypt fed rats celery , these rats experienced a reduction in the amount of dangerous fat buildup within the liver.

Precisely, when researchers supplemented the high-cholesterol diets of rats with celery, they observed an improvement in liver enzyme function and blood lipid levels.

Beneficial for Weight Loss

Celery is extremely low in calories and can be a valuable food to help you lose weight. Because of its ability to provide vital nutrients and to help regulate lipid metabolism. One of the major benefits of celery is that it’s so nutrient-dense, meaning it provides antioxidants, electrolytes, vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, B vitamins and potassium. All with very little calories.

Helps Prevent Urinary Tract Infections

Because celery helps to reduce uric acid and stimulates urine production, it’s beneficial for fighting bacterial infections within the digestive tract and reproductive organs.

Celery can help prevent such UTIs, as well as bladder disorders, kidney problems and possibly even cysts on reproductive organs.

May Help Protect from Cancer

Another one of the important benefits of celery?

It’s in the same plant family as cancer-protective vegetables like carrots, celery, fennel, parsley and parsnips, which all contain chemo-protective compounds called polyacetylenes. Early studies have shown that polyacetylenes help reduce toxicity and fight against cancer formation, specifically breast cancer, intestinal cancer and leukemia.
