Time to add celery to your grocery list! Celery is another powerhouse that is high in vitamin C, lowers cholesterol, helps prevent cancers, and helps to reduce blood pressure. It contains amino acids, calcium, essential fatty acids, folate, iron, potassium, zinc, fiber, as well as numerous B vitamins, vitamin A, E, and K. Since celery has anti-inflammatory properties, it is great for people who suffer from arthritis, rheumatism, gout, or any swelling around the joints. Celery can also help support your immune system as well as your cardiovascular health.[1]
Celery is extremely versatile! Add it to your salads, soups, have it as a snack, or mix it in with almost any chili or casserole for a great health boost.
