Celery is often seen as little more than a crunchy addition to a salad or a sidekick to peanut butter—but behind its humble appearance lies a powerful health booster.
This low-calorie, nutrient-dense vegetable is loaded with antioxidants, fiber, minerals, and anti-inflammatory compounds.
But what happens if you eat celery every day for a week? Whether you juice it, munch it raw, or toss it into your soup, celery can significantly impact your health – sometimes in as little as 7 days.
1. Improved Digestion and Gut Health
Celery contains both soluble and insoluble fiber, which helps regulate bowel movements and keeps your digestive system running smoothly.
Why It Works:
Stimulates production of gastric juices and bile
Helps food move through the digestive tract
Reduces bloating and constipation
Soothes the stomach lining
Tip: Eat celery raw for the most fiber, or juice it first thing in the morning for gentle cleansing.
2. Natural Anti-Inflammatory Action
Celery is rich in phytonutrients like apigenin, luteolin, and polyacetylenes, which help reduce inflammation throughout the body.
Benefits:
May reduce joint pain, muscle soreness, and stiffness
Helps fight chronic conditions like arthritis, asthma, and IBD
Reduces levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) – a marker of inflammation
If you’re struggling with any inflammatory condition, daily celery may offer relief without side effects.
