1. Improves Digestive Function
Celery’s powerhouse of digestive-friendly compounds may help improve mild stomach issues. One glass of juice in the morning can help with bloating, constipation, gastric reflux and water retention. Indigestion and other digestive complaints are often caused by abnormal levels of stomach acid.
Celery is one of nature’s gentle laxatives and contains sodium, which helps promote the production of hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is a compound produced naturally in the stomach and, together with digestive enzymes, it kills bacteria and breaks down food.
