Fermented celery offers a natural salty taste, enhancing flavor without adding salt, making it ideal for low-sodium applications. Celery has a rich legacy as both a medicinal herb and a food. Traditionally, it was revered in ancient Greece and Rome, where it was used both to honor athletes and to flavor dishes. Over the centuries, celery seed has gained recognition for supporting liver and gallbladder health and for its anti-inflammatory properties, especially in relation to joint and digestive wellness.

Fermentation enhances celery’s bioactive compounds, contributing to its numerous health benefits. Key phytocompounds include:

Flavonoids: Apigenin, Luteolin, Kaempferol

Phenolic Acids: Caffeic acid, Ferulic acid

Phthalides: 3-n-butylphthalide (3nB), Sedanolide

These phytocompounds are known for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cardiovascular benefits, supporting joint health, liver function, and overall wellness. They are soluble in water and can be effectively extracted during infusion.

Fermentation enhances celery’s nutrient profile, improving the bioavailability of its bioactive compounds while providing a healthier alternative to salt.

Molecules: Phenolic Compounds, Flavonoids, Terpenes

Organic Acids: Acetic, Gluconic, Succinic acids
