Celery is more than just a crunchy snack — it’s a powerhouse of hydration, fiber, and healing compounds. Here’s a breakdown:

🥬 Nutritional Highlights

• Low in calories: Just 10–14 calories per stalk or cup!
• High water content: About 95%, making it ultra-hydrating
• Rich in fiber: Supports digestion and regularity
• Packed with vitamins: A, C, K, folate, and potassium

🌿 Healing Benefits

• Antioxidant protection: Contains flavonoids, vitamin C, and other compounds that fight cellular damage

• Anti-inflammatory effects: Celery and its seeds have over 25 compounds that help reduce inflammation, potentially easing arthritis and osteoporosis

• Blood pressure regulation: Phthalides in celery relax artery walls and improve blood flow

• Alkalizing effect: Minerals like magnesium and iron help neutralize acidity in the body

✅ Nutrient loss: Chop celery just before eating it to preserve its nutrients

Antioxidant rich Celery and Berry Smoothie:

4 Bananas 🍌
4 large stalks of Celery 🥬
1 1/2 cups mixed frozen Berries 🫐
4 pitted and soaked Dates
2 tbsp Sun Warrior Protein powder
2 cups filtered water 💦
2 cups ice 🧊

Blend very well, serve and enjoy!
💜 Makes about 5-6 cups

Looks like I need an upgrade on my juicer! I'm still using a vertical low speed Omega Juicer which we bought about 10 years ago. It still works which is great but some ingredients can get stuck in the center sometimes.. What kind of juicer do you use??

Green juices can be a great ally for boosting the immune system, especially during the colder months when we’re more susceptible to colds and flu. Here's how:

1. 🥬Rich in Vitamins and Minerals: Ingredients like kale and broccoli are packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like iron and calcium. Vitamin C is well-known for enhancing the immune function by stimulating the production and powering up the function of white blood cells.

2. 🍍Powerful Antioxidants: Green juices often contain ingredients rich in antioxidants, such as apples and pineapples. These antioxidants help combat free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, which can otherwise weaken the immune system.

3. 🍋Alkalizing Effect: Many green vegetables can help balance the body's pH level. An alkaline environment provides a less favorable setting for viruses and bacteria, potentially reducing the risk of infections.

4. 💦Hydration: Juices, by nature, are hydrating, which is essential for maintaining mucous membranes and skin barriers—our first line of defense against pathogens.

5. 🥦Detoxification: The nutrients in green juices can support liver function, helping the body detoxify and remove harmful substances more efficiently, thereby freeing up immune resources to combat pathogens.

6. ⚡️Energy Boost: Consuming green juices can enhance energy levels and vitality, making the body more resilient and better able to fend off illnesses. Even while we're sick, sipping on green juices can quicken our recovery when our metabolism and appetite are very low.

Juicing greens doesn't have to be complicated. You can choose simple ingredients that you may be lacking in. They can boost your dark green vegetable intake and give your immune system the power it needs to keep you healthy no matter how cold and dark it gets outside.

Cheers to your health! 💪
