Benefits of Celery Juice Phytonutrients

One of the major benefits of drinking celery juice is the presence of phytonutrients like three and beautiful phthalide, AP Genin, chimeric acid, and campferol. These compounds offer various health advantages such as repairing after a stroke, reducing inflammation, supporting blood sugars, and providing antiviral and antibacterial properties. Additionally, celery juice helps with muscle relaxation, lowers blood pressure, improves sleep, and may assist with amnesia.

Exploring the Health Benefits of Celery Juice and Its Phytonutrients

In this podcast, we’re going to talk about the benefits of drinking celery juice. Celery is 95% water, so it doesn’t contain many nutrients. A 16-ounce glass of celery juice contains some folate (B9) and about 288 mg of sodium.

However, celery juice contains four phytonutrients that have significant health benefits.

1. 3-n-butylphthalide

This phytochemical can help repair damage caused by a stroke, reconstruct microcirculation, and has neuroregenerative properties. It also has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptosis, and anti-thrombosis properties.

2. Apigenin

Apigenin is one of the most studied polyphenols. It’s also found in parsley, onions, oranges, thyme, and basil. Apigenin acts as a muscle relaxer, lowers blood pressure, and improves sleep. It has anti-diabetic properties and has shown to be helpful for people with amnesia.

3. Coumaric acid

Coumaric acid is anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, and anti-clotting. It supports healthy blood sugar levels and can also help with inflammation associated with arthritis.

4. Kaempferol

Kaempferol is a potent antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory agent.

Celery juice is best consumed in the morning on an empty stomach. Choose organic celery to make celery juice, and add lemon juice for taste if you’d like.
