Celery is in rich vitamin K with a high water content which works to brighten your skin by reducing darkness from under your eyes, dullness and helping to keep skin cells plump. It also contains apiuman, a polysaccharide which provides anti-inflammatory benefits while silica strengthens your nails, encouraging healthy growth. Celery is also an alkalizing vegetable, meaning it helps to decrease acidity in your body and restore balance.
COOK:
All of celery is edible! Commonly used for its petiole (stalk), the leaves of celery are also full of nutrients. Use celery in soups, stews or salads.
TIP:
Choose celery that looks crisp and crunchy. To regrow celery from scraps, chop the base of the celery about 10cm from the end and place it in a dish of water in a sunny area. After around three weeks you can transplant it into the garden.
