Native to south-western Europe and the Middle East, coriander was already known to the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, who used its seeds to flavor their bread. In the Middle Ages, it spread throughout Europe for culinary use, and was recognized for its antibacterial and antifungal properties. Both leaves and seeds contain antioxidants. Coriander leaves are a very good source of vitamin K, necessary for blood clotting. Coriander seeds relieve gastrointestinal ailments, aerophagia and bloating. Stimulating, coriander boosts the body's energy and helps combat fatigue and flu-like symptoms. Coriander is sometimes recommended for anxiety and to promote sleep.
