celery is good 4 diet!!~

Celery is valuable in weight-loss diets, where it provides low-calorie dietary fiber bulk. Celery contains androstenone. Bergapten in the seeds can increase photosensitivity, so the use of essential oil externally in bright sunshine should be avoided. But the oil and large doses of seeds should be avoided during pregnancy: they can act as a uterine stimulant. Seeds intended for cultivation are not suitable for eating as they are often treated with fungicides.

There is a common belief that celery is so difficult for humans to digest, that it has negative calories because human digestion burns more calories than can be extracted. Celery seeds are also a great source of calcium, and are regarded as a good alternative to animal products.

Not only does celery curb your appetite and actually burns calories as you munch on it, but now it fights off cancer too!A bunch of celery is more precisely referred to as a stalk composed of individual ribs. Celery is often erroneously thought to have “negative calories.” In other words, it takes more calories to chew it than it contains. At only 6 calories per rib, it is virtually calorie-free.

So, what are you waiting for?? Get munching!
