Do you know that Celery comes from the same family as parsley and fennel? Celery has a high content of Vitamin A, and the stems are a fab source of vitamins B1, B2, B6 and C with loads of potassium, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorous, sodium and essential amino acids - WOW!!!!! Make a point of crunching through this delish and refreshing powerhouse daily.

Celery has many health benefits, of which some are;

weight loss - drink celery juice frequently it helps curb your cravings for sweets and rich foods
