“Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) is an herb used in many types of cooking and sometimes used for medicinal purposes. Though usually consumed as a food, parsley is also available in dietary supplement and tea form. Proponents suggest that extracts of parsley’s leaves, seeds, and/or roots can help treat a number of health conditions, including digestive issues. For instance, a tea made from parsley seeds is a traditional remedy for indigestion and intestinal gas. Parsley is also often suggested to help reduce menstrual cramps and to help eliminate excess water weight.”
