A team of researchers from India found that celery seeds (Apium graveolens) significantly improves cholesterol levels and prevents tumor growth. This finding, which was recently published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements, was based on the results of in vivo experiments.
From these results, the researchers concluded that compounds in celery seeds have potent antihyperlipidemic and antitumor effects.
