Hinders the Replication Cycle of Cancer Cells:On the other hand, Luteolin present in celery hinders the replication cycle of cancer cells. As per the BioMed Central Gastroenterology Journal, Luteolin stops the signal pathways (IGF and PI3K) which encourage the growth of cancer cells, specifically colorectal cancers. Cancer of the colon is very much rampant in developed countries and ranks second among all types of cancer related deaths. Luteolin also impedes excessive production of TNF-alpha - known to be a major source of inflammation.
