Discorides and Pliny.
It contains balanced minerals, vitamins

plant hormones. The presence of the essential oils makes celery special.
They are also found in the seeds & can be added to the juice also.
These oils have a specific effect on the regulation of the nervous
system, and have a great calming influence. Celery is used for its
strong stimulating and beneficial effect on a weak sexual system, but as
is usual with plant therapies the normally active person does not have
to fear an uncontrollable upsurge.
