Celery juice is hot right now! It’s trending, but juicing has been around for hundreds of years. This juice is a powerhouse for 5 big conditions you may be dealing with, and it’s CHEAP!
1. REPAIRS THE GUT
Celery juice is capable of detoxing and flushing the digestive system & liver. It’s also a form of laxative so it’ll help get your system going! How does it repair the gut? Hydrochloric acid gets destroyed with the amount of sugar we consume and protein we need to process. All that junk ends up sitting in your gut, causing issues like acid reflux, heartburn, constipation & diarrhea. Celery juice levels out the hydrochloric acid inside your stomach!
2. SUPPORTS BONES & JOINTS
Celery juice is full of mineral salts. These salts are really good for the bones and the joints because it breaks down the salts and the minerals that build up and make you stiff and tight (especially in the morning). It’s very high in calcium–which is definitely going to help those bones, and also silicon-which is a necessity to sustain strong bones.
3. CLEANS YOUR BLOOD
Celery juice contains high amounts of magnesium and iron and things your blood needs to function on a normal basis. It also clears the blood so it doesn’t clot up & get sticky. Celery juice also supports the nervous system. The amount of stress you’re under & how much you sit (damage to the spine) in turn damages the nervous system. These minerals help the nervous system conduct at a higher level!
4. DETOXIFIES
Celery juice detoxes and pulls out all of the junk in your system and is a natural diuretic due to the high amounts of potassium and sodium. The potassium/sodium balance inside your body is what may cause swelling & fluid retention within the body and cause joint stiffness. We are not getting enough potassium in food – so getting a simple vegetable (like celery) and juicing it will level it out and balance it for you! Additionally, we all need some alkaline fluids going into our body to remove the acidity that builds up (stiffness in the joints). Keeping in mind, you shouldn’t ONLY drink alkaline fluids because you’ll mess up your stomach, celery juice is very alkaline and can help with that acidity!
So there you have it…5 organ systems that are affected, just by juicing a $2.00 stalk of celery!
