Lose Weight and Lower High Blood Pressure by Eating More Celery


For many of us, celery is an acquired taste, which is why I like to discuss the health benefits because, after learning them, you may be more enticed to include celery in your JOOS.

We have a young, Russian woman who lives with us and she tells me that Russians will pay at least $7 for a small glass of celery juice. She tells me Russians believe that celery juice is great for losing weight and eliminating bloat.

The Russians have it right. Celery helps in losing weight and acts as a natural diuretic. It also aides in lowering cholesterol and high blood pressure, as you can read in the link below:

Celery is also rich in Vitamin C, which supports the immune system. It is also known as a cancer fighter. So, what are you waiting for? Consume more celery!
