DRIED PARSLEY = superior to any Apigenin supplement. Rebut me if you can.

The study is referencing fresh parsley btw. Dried parsley would have a magnitude more apigenin per gram, as much of the lost weight is in water. I saw a figure citing 4g of dried parsley is equivalent to the 150g of fresh parsley on the Apigenin wikipedia page.
It would definitely vary and the pesticide content is maybe a bit concerning.
However, parsley may also have other undiscovered beneficial polyphenols.

It most certainly does. I bet there are multiple other beneficial things in parsley besides apigenin. We find the same thing every time we build out methods for plant extracts. We are finding some really cool things in Horny Goat Weed apart from icariin, which honestly are even more interesting than icariin itself. I wouldn't be opposed to a more full spectrum parsley extract.
