The Multiple Benefits Of Celery

Many of us look upon celery as a not very interesting or inspiring vegetable, when in actual fact it is an herb and is documented as one of the oldest herbs used by humanity.

Try it as a snack with a hommus dip, it's also delicious in salads and soups, and adds extra flavour and nutrition to stews!

But did you know that it is also extremely valuable for the relief of inflammation related to pain associated with arthritis and gout, as a diuretic, to ease flatulence, and also to aid digestion. Quite an impressive list!

Note: Another important property of celery (especially for those of us who are watching our weight) is that it contains so few calories that digesting it uses more energy than it provides!

So use celery with gay abandon throughout the year!
