Properties of celery

The characteristic smell and taste of the firm, greenish stalks of celery are a reason for some people to avoid it in their diet. However, its composition has such a beneficial effect on our bodies that it's worth considering, especially if we're looking for natural ways to support our metabolic processes. Eaten raw, celery provides us with nutrients such as vitamins PP and E, folic acid, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, calcium, potassium, and zinc. It's also rich in fiber, which accelerates metabolism and fat burning. Including celery in your diet can also help relieve joint pain, relieve constipation, and support the liver by cleansing it of toxins. It's also worth remembering that celery is exceptionally low in calories – 100g (0.1kg) contains just 5 calories. Therefore, it can be an exceptionally healthy snack, which, along with a herbal dip, can replace chips or breadsticks in the evening.

How to make celery juice?

Celery stalks can be enjoyed as a snack during the day or in the evening, as an addition to salads or popular green smoothies with other vegetables and fruits. However, nutritionists especially recommend drinking pure celery juice made with a low-speed juicer. This preserves the celery fibers, producing a slightly greenish juice with an exceptionally high concentration of mineral salts, which support immune function and liver function. When choosing a slow juicer, pay attention to its parameters, which allow for juicing vegetables and fruits without losing valuable nutrients and vitamins.

How to drink celery juice?

If you want to speed up your metabolism and cleanse your body of toxins, it's worth drinking a glass of pure celery juice in the morning, before your first meal. Due to its low calorie content, it doesn't replace a full breakfast. However, wait about 15 minutes before eating.

Fresh celery juice should be consumed within 24 hours, so you can take it with you to work or on a walk as an alternative to water. A conveniently transportable glass LEAF bottle or a thermal DROP bottle is the perfect container for storing it throughout the day. If drinking celery juice on an empty stomach isn't convenient, you can take it in two servings throughout the day, 15 to 30 minutes before or after each meal.

The distinctive flavor of celery can be slightly toned down by adding the juice of a cucumber or apple to it first. Also, be sure to remove the leaves from the celery stalk – they are primarily responsible for the characteristic, slightly bitter flavor of this vegetable.
