Celery is a plant species belonging to the Apiaceae family, native to Mediterranean regions.
It has fluted stems that form a thick penca with wedged leaves.
The medicinal use of celery dates back to ancient times, as evidenced by its presence in an edict issued by Charlemagne ordering that a number of herbs including "apium" be grown in his fields.
The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the seeds.
Historically Celery EO has been valued for its properties such as:
Digestive tonic, Hepato-renal draining, Calming, Antipigmentary, Aperitif, Diuretic.
