Benefits of Celery for High Blood Pressure and MORE

I have done a couple of posts already on the benefits of eating celery and drinking celery juice made in a Vita Mixer or Ninja machine or any other high speed processor that can liquefy the celery (and other veggies) without discarding the fiber, pulp etc.

Here is a list of proven celery benefits:

• Contains 8 different anti-cancer compounds including acetylenies, phenolic acids and coumarin
• Alkalizing nature of celery fights inflammation in the body
• Alleviates acids that can cause allergy symptoms
• LOWERS BLOOD PRESSURE / contains phytalides which relaxes muscle around arteries and dilates the vessels allowing normal blood flow
• Lowers overall cholesterol and LDL cholesterol which is generated by the body to combat dietary and metabolic acids (CELERY IS GREAT FOR NORMALIZING YOUR PH)
• Reduces inflammation caused by an acidic diet - There is evidence that type 2 diabetes is caused at least in part by having your PH of the interstitial fluid surrounding your cells too acidic.
• Promotes healthy kidney action
• Diuretic qualities promotes urine flow which again helps the body to eliminate excess acid
• Contains organic alkaline minerals to soothe the nervous system
• ALSO proved to be a factor in possibly preventing memory loss, urinary stones, gall bladder stones, bursitis, constipation,  and to aid in weight loss AND MORE.

SEE an earlier post I did on June 6, 2011 on INTERSTITIAL FLUID:

Celery is probably one of the best buys for the money in your local grocery store or farmer's market etc. The value for your hard earned dollar is there. I encourage you to buy enough celery to enable you to make a celery shake and or eat 3 to 4 stalks of celery WITH THE LEAVES EVERY DAY.

You will be glad you did. Look in some of my older posts for green smoothie recipes containing celery, apples, carrots, cucucumbers, etc.

Drinking Celery In Your Green smoothies For Type 2 Diabetes

If you are not making yourself a smoothie or two every day using one of the major ingredients as CELERY, you could be missing the boat on helping your diabetes. LET'S TAKE A LOOK:

CELERY:

• Contains poly acetylene which relieves inflammation
• Helps you lose weight
• Rich in organic sodium and minerals which calms your nerves
• Lowers blood pressure
• Celery leaves contain Vitamin A
• Stalks contain B1, B2, B6, Vitamin C, potassium and amino acids
• Neutralizes acidity and balances your PH
• Replaces lost electrolytes
• Contains 8 families of cancer fighting compounds
• Lowers overall cholesterol and LDL (the bad cholesterol)
• Alleviates constipation
• Helps normalize body temperature

Get out your Vita mixer or your Ninja machine or whatever you have to make green smoothies and LEAVE it out on your counter. Put a sharp knife, a cutting board and a colander next to it (to rinse off the veggies before making a smoothie) and start drinking to your Heath.

Start with 4 stalks of celery, add a crisp apple or two with seeds and core removed, 1 medium carrot, a handful of baby spinach and a sprig or two of parsley, a handful of red seedless grapes, and cold water till the pitcher is about 2/3 full and then blend all ingredients until liquefied and smooth. You may add a packet or two of stevia if you which for taste.

Do this procedure 2X a day and you will be amazed at how much better you feel in a month or so.

Isa 53:4-5

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed
