• Coriander's phenols also reduce activation of Nf-kappaB: a pro-inflammatory “nuclear transcription factor” linked to inflammatory diseases including cancer, atherosclerosis, diabetes, allergy, asthma, arthritis, Crohn's disease, and Alzheimer's disease.
  Note: Fresh coriander leaves are commonly known as cilantro in the Americas.
