Eat cilantro for health.

This herb is not only commonly used and an ingredient that in the form of seed is found in many tasty and exotic recipes, it is also a powerful natural cleansing agent. Coriander has been used effectively to remove toxic metals and other toxic agents from the body.

The chemical compounds of coriander adhere to toxic metals, releasing them from tissues, blood and organs. The chemical components of coriander then help to expel these harmful substances from the body.

There is also much literature suggesting that coriander could be one of the best natural chelating agents, particularly for individuals who have been exposed to high levels of mercury. Excess mercury is a common problem that can be the result of metallic dental fillings or excessive consumption of predatory fish. Many people who suffer from excess mercury report that the feeling of disorientation that comes with this intoxication can be greatly reduced by consuming large amounts of cilantro over a long period of time.

Also the rich qualities of coriander oil have a powerful positive effect on the inside of the digestive tract. The oils help the digestive system to produce digestive enzymes, acids and juices. The oil also stimulates digestion through a peristaltic movement.
