let’s talk about celery today what it can do for you

um there’s not a lot of research on celery

some people might say well i’m gonna wait for the research to come out but

it’s really pretty simple to do research on yourself

eat some celery see if it helps you that’s your own

personal study right there but celery has been known to help people

with high blood pressure there are certain phytonutrients in

celery and i’ve recommended celery to a lot of people and it seems to work

pretty well here’s one of the phytonutrients right

here but realize that this phytonutrient is in

the fiber part so if you’re juicing the

celery and drinking the juice you may or may not get enough so if

someone were to have high blood pressure symptoms i would recommend just

consuming the entire celery versus the juice you can also get

celery seed extracts this is more concentrated in this phytonutrient right

here so there’s a lot of benefits of celery

seed extract you can get that online or at the health food

store but consuming the entire stalks of celery

you’re going to get most of benefits that you need with these right here

also celery can help you sleep at night so if you’re going to consume

three to four stalks before bed not right before bed maybe

an hour or two before bed and will it kick you out of ketosis

just a little bit there’s not a lot of calories in celery and also it’s just

like mainly water some fiber which does not affect the

blood sugars and there’s not a lot of sugar in celery

in fact it’s very low on the glycemic index so of course you wouldn’t want to

add peanut butter on it because that would add

more calories to it but it can help you relax

and help insomnia now there is higher amounts of sodium in celery but

it’s nothing compared to what your daily recommendation is so it’s not going to

be really off the charts celery also has

potassium it has a little bit of sodium but it’s

not going to be a problem some people are concerned about

consuming celery because it has too much sodium you do not have to worry about

that because your body needs sodium but when you consume celery

especially before bed you wake up with less fluid retention

so if you have puffy ankles for example celery is a really good

diuretic not to mention other things in the celery other than just electrolytes

next point is celery is really good for inflammation

of your joints so it’s a really good anti-inflammatory

especially for gout arthritis which is right

here so there’s another phytonutrient that helps lower uric acid

not to mention celery is alkaline so it can help alkalize the body and

when you alkalize the body what happens the gout symptoms reduce greatly so no

longer you’re getting these deposits of uric acid crystals just by changing

the ph and alkalizing your body that shuts off

so i really recommend celery about three to four stalks a day now celery is

also good for UTIs urinary tract infections

celery also contains a phytonutrient called

apigenin which is i’ve talked about this in my summit

it’s a really powerful anti-cancer phytonutrient it’s also in

parsley and some other vegetables as well

and as the last point i want to bring up if you have gout

even though apple cider vinegar is acidic this also seems to be

good for gout thanks for watching before you go if you have a question

about a product or you’re new to keto and you want to know how to begin keto

going as smooth i have a keto consultant standing by to
