Studies have shown that celery seeds are rich in oil and contain a variety of pharmacologically active ingredients, which have the effects of dispelling qi, reducing swelling, diuresis, anti-tumor and anti-aging. It is reported in the literature that Apigenin A and Apigenin B can prolong the sleep time of mouse pentobarbital sodium and have a wide range of anticonvulsant effects. At the same time, it has a certain protective effect on brain cells.
Experiments show that celery seed oil can significantly improve the brain index and brain edema of rats with cerebral ischemia. At the same time, celery seed oil can improve the neurobehavioral symptoms of MCAO rats and reduce the area of cerebral infarction. It shows that celery seed oil can improve the ischemic state of the brain tissue, reduce the ischemic damage of the brain tissue, and achieve the effect of anti-cerebral ischemia.
