Celery can be eaten raw. If we eat celery raw in our life, it has a good antihypertensive effect and is better than cooked celery. For middle-aged and elderly people with hypertension, you can drink a glass of raw celery juice every morning, which has a good antihypertensive effect and can persist in drinking it every morning. Although celery can be eaten raw, you must pay attention to cleaning it before eating it raw, otherwise you will eat raw celery or celery juice.

Celery can be eaten raw and has the following advantages:

First, detoxify and lose weight. Fresh celery is rich in dietary fiber and water. Eating raw celery can accelerate the peristalsis of our body, promote digestion, accelerate our metabolism, help our body expel peppers and toxins, and effectively reduce the accumulation of body fat. Our long-term hoarse raw celery can play a very good role in losing weight and detoxifying.

Second, lower blood pressure. For us now, "three highs" has become the most common disease, and generally speaking, "three highs" will appear together, which will have a very serious impact on our health. Raw celery contains a lot of choline, which can promote the softening of our blood vessels and accelerate the flow of our blood. But if we cook and eat, choline will be lost after high-temperature cooking, and the effect of lowering blood pressure after frying will be greatly reduced. Therefore, we should try to eat celery raw in life, so that the function and efficacy of celery can be maximized.

Third, diuretic and detumescence. Raw celery contains many minerals and nutrients, such as potassium, which can accelerate the discharge of potassium in our body, relieve the water retention in our body, and alleviate our edema and disadvantages. And if we accumulate a lot of sodium in our body, it is easy to grow spots. Therefore, long-term consumption of raw celery can inhibit the growth of spots, especially freckles, and has a good cosmetic effect and function.

Celery is rich in nutrients such as protein, carotene and B vitamins. If we eat it for a long time, it will have the effects of calming liver and clearing heat, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, moistening lung and relieving cough. However, many nutrients will be lost to varying degrees when cooked at high temperature or in oil. In order to retain the nutrition of celery to the greatest extent, we should pay attention to cooking methods when making it. Everyone should cook as much as possible, and don't fry it. If you can choose to eat raw food, you should also pay attention to some problems, because raw food has food safety hazards and must be cleaned.
