Default Pass the celery, please

News of a positive effect on neuroinflammation from luteolin, found in celery and green peppers, here's the link:

http://foodconsumer.org/7777/8888/G_...he_brain.shtml

One of the important findings:

"Those cells that were also exposed to luteolin showed a significantly diminished inflammatory response. Jang showed that luteolin was shutting down production of a key cytokine in the inflammatory pathway, interleukin-6 (IL-6). The effects of luteolin exposure were dramatic, resulting in as much as a 90 percent drop in IL-6 production in the LPS-treated cells."
