Celery Juice, Drink Of Youth!



In the past, I have read and heard about the benefits of celery juice but I personally was not drinking it on a regular basis.



I have began drinking celery juice for a month now. After my work out, I mix it with grape fruit and lemon!!! I can honestly call it a drink of youth. I'm encouraging you to try celery juice and see the result.



Celery juice is highly nutritious and one of the most hydrating foods we can

put in our bodies. In ancient times, it was considered a medicinal herb used to treat a variety of health complaints.

  • It is high in Vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and C.
  • It is packed with sodium, though this is offset by its high levels of potassium. Because of this, celery juice makes a great electrolyte replacement drink, much better than Gatorade or anything unnatural.
  • It is an excellent source of fiber and folic acid.
  • It improves detoxification.
  • It reduces high blood pressure.
  • It gives the effect of calmness, so it's great before a nerve-racking experience, such as a speech.
  • It's great for the kidney, as it acts as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.
  • It aids successful elimination of the body's waste through the urine.
  • For all you people who are trying to lose weight It's surprising, but celery contains almost zero calories. You can eat stacks of it and never put on any weight at all.
  • Celery is also thought to prevent cancer. It contains phytochemical compounds known as coumarins. These coumarins are effective as cancer prevention agents and are known to enhance the activity of certain white blood cells.
  • Coumarins also lower blood pressure, tone the vascular system and can sometimes relieve migraines.
  • Celery also acts as an appetite suppresser.





Celery can be juiced with any other fruits or vegetables. A particularly delicious and powerful combination is carrot, apple, cucumber and celery.



If you experience any reactions after celery juice, stop it immediately. For example, some people have a skin problem, which means they have a sensitivity to psoralens.
