TLDR Papaya seed and celery leaf powder can help maintain hair health and lasts 3 weeks.
The study aimed to create a powder preparation from papaya seeds and celery to promote hair health. Papaya seeds contain glucoside cacarindan and karpain, which can discolor hair, while celery leaves have vasodilator activity that may stimulate hair growth. The preparation involved mixing 7 grams of dried papaya seeds with 5 grams of dried celery leaves, grinding them finely, and packaging the mixture in aluminum foil. The results indicated that the powder remained stable and durable for 3 weeks when stored at room temperature and a stable cold temperature.
