*Essential Oil contains myrcene, which is known to cause cancer* There are some people who have strong allergic reactions to celery in food. Celery allergy seems to be far more common in central Europe, mainly France, Switzerland and Germany, and less so in the UK and U.S., where peanut allergy is the most common. It is one of a small number of foods that can cause severe allergic reactions. These reactions are less common than peanut allergy. People with celery allergy can experience potentially fatal anaphylactic shock when exposed to celery. * Cooking celery does not destroy the proteins which cause the allergic reaction. Celery root, commonly eaten as celeriac, or put into drinks, is known to contain more allergen than the stalk, however the seeds contain the highest levels of allergen content. Dried celery or spice is also highly allergenic and likely to cause a reaction if a person is sensitive to raw celery. Some people who are allergic to birch pollen may also be allergic to celery seed. * Thus, if you aren’t allergic to celery in its whole form, then you probably won’t be allergic to celery seed oil. However, it is always wise when trying an essential oil for the first time to proceed carefully just in case you might have a rare allergic reaction. Start by simply sniffing the oil while it is still in the bottle and watch for a reaction. * Look for tingling and itching sensations of the nose, mouth, and throat, which often appear in a few minutes. Raised bumps and itching can also appear on the face and eyelids. A skin rash and swelling may also occur. Extreme swelling of the throat may cause constriction of the airways, which can result in breathing difficulties. If this happens, seek medical attention.
