Biting
celery can remove the unpleasant breath from your mouth. Its crunchy structure
increases the amount of saliva in the mouth and thus removes the breath.
Celery is
one of the foods we cook almost daily. It is indispensable in salads, soups and
stews. But did you know what he is all about when it comes to health?
1. Fighter
for the lean line
In most
cases, the celery stem is made up of 83 percent water and a healthy amount of
fiber. The energy value of 100 grams of celery is small - 14 kcal / 59 kJ. Of
that, 0.69 percent is protein, 2.97 percent carbohydrate, and 0.17 percent fat.
Celery stalk is often consumed raw as a snack because, as some say, chewing consumes
more calories than the stalk itself. A large percentage of water makes celery
an ideal summer food to provide your body with enough fluid, and as it is
"low in calories", it is suitable for anyone who wants to lose extra
pounds.
2. Lower the
pressure
This
versatile vegetable contains active substances that naturally relax the muscles
in and around the walls of the arteries. They also lower blood pressure and
promote the health of the circulatory system by reducing stress hormones.
3. Calm the
nervous system
Celery
contains significant amounts of magnesium, potassium and calcium. The
beneficial effect of these minerals is to calm the nervous system. Even
Hippocrates prescribed celery stem juice to patients suffering from nervous
tension.
4. Protects
against leukemia
Dutch
researchers at the University of Groningen say one component of foods such as
parsley and celery can beat blood cancer - leukemia! Studies have shown that
the flavonoid in question, apigenin, has stopped the growth of two cell types
that occur in leukemia.
5. Help with
kidney stones
Celery is a
great diuretic. The potassium and sodium they contain help regulate body fluid,
and in addition stimulates the production of urine. It properly directs renal
function, and by removing toxins it prevents scale buildup.
6.
Anti-inflammatory properties
Celery is
recommended for people suffering from arthritis, rheumatism and gout. Its
anti-inflammatory properties found in semen help reduce swelling and pain
around the joints, and will relieve you of muscle cramps as well.
7. Refreshes
breath
Biting
celery can remove the unpleasant breath from your mouth. Its crunchy structure
increases the amount of saliva in the mouth and thus removes the breath. Also,
if you are starving for a long time (be aware, for health and vitality experts
recommend more small meals instead of two or three larger meals a day), more
stomach acid will be collected and it will surely be felt by people near you.
