Coriander
Coriander is not the same as cilantro. Cilantro comes from the leaves of the plant, while coriander comes from the seed. Within the seed, there are two potent antioxidants. Antioxidants provide a wide variety of benefits. They protect your cells, keeping you healthy, and preventing disease.
Coriander is noted in digestion research. It is believed that it relaxes contracted muscles that cause painful symptoms for those with IBS and other digestive disorders. The same is believed to be true for arteries, effectively lowering blood pressure. It has also been shown to prevent and treat colon cancer, eczema, insomnia, ulcers, and type II diabetes.
