Celery seed can either be taken as a spice in a food or as an extract. Do not eat the seeds by themselves as they are bitter and hard to ingest.
This herb does have it’s drawbacks. A couple of them are very serious. A small percentage of people actually have an allergy to this herb. An allergy to this herb is very dangerous.
Celery seeds contain oils that can be highly lethal if you are allergic to them. This highly dangerous medical condition is called anaphylaxis. While it is unlikely you will have this problem, I feel it is important that you are aware of this potentially lethal side effect.
Most gout patients are men, however, it is possible for women to get gout. Because of this fact, you should be aware that if you are a woman and you have gout, do not use celery seed if you are pregnant. The oil in the seeds raises the risk of miscarriage or premature delivery.
