Cilantro or Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is an annual herb. The leaves are variously referred to as coriander leaves, fresh coriander, Chinese parsley, or (in North America) cilantro. Although sometimes eaten alone, the seeds often are used as a spice or an added ingredient in other foods. Coriander, like many spices, contains antioxidants, which can delay or prevent the spoilage of food seasoned with this spice. Coriander has been documented as a traditional treatment for type 2 diabetes. It is also used in a great many different dishes, particularly Mexican and Asian cuisines.
