Coriander

Coriander Seed vs Leaf

Both seed and leaf of the coriander plant can produce essential oil. However, they have different chemical and therapeutic qualities, so it is critical to know which you are using. The scent of the seed oil is also quite different from the leaf oil and is not interchangeable if the aroma is what you are after in a blend.

Coriander as a herb is one of the most commonly used worldwide and is traditionally added to dishes to add flavour and as a cure to ease cramps and nausea. This traditional use is supported by the research on essential oil that shows its chemical constitutes aid with digestive issues(1). Other studies have shown it to have antibacterial properties that work by disrupting the cell barrier. (2) Recent studies have shown promise for managing neurodegenerative diseases using Coriander seed oil due to its anti-inflammatory properties(3). While the herb is sometimes not tolerated and has a taste that can be pretty off-putting to some people, the essential oil smell is very different and has a much more pleasant and aromatic scent than the plant it comes from.
