Celery juice has become quit the popular health drink over the last few years. Anthony William, the author of Medical Medium is the reason so many have flocked to juicing celery. I’ve read through the medical medium books and while I don’t follow all his recommendations, I do like his juicing recipes.
Why Make Celery Juice?
Celery is rich in vitamins A, C, and vitamin K and is also contains some calcium, magnesium, zinc and copper. Juicing celery is a great way to get a mega dose of some of these nutrients.
The Best Juicer for Making Celery Juice
There are a variety of different juicers available on the market. The best juicers for making celery juice are masticating juicers because they are slow, cold pressed juicers that don’t use heat or a fast motor that can destroy nutrients in fresh pressed juices.
Best Celery Juice Recipe
You will need 2-3 bunches of organic celery and optional additions like lemons, lime or green apples.
Cut the tops of bottoms off the celery and place it in a colander. Wash the celery stalks well and pat dry.
Feed the celery stalks through the juicer chute, one at a time. Continue until you’ve used all your celery. Add additional ingredients like lemon, lime, ginger or green apples.
Turn off the juicer and pour the fresh pressed juice into a serving glass. Drink immediately. It’s best to drink the celery juice fresh, but if you have extra you can store it in an airtight container for 24 hours. Adding lemon juice to the cold-pressed juice can prolong it’s shelf life.
If you’re following the medical medium parodical, you will want to drink your fresh juice on an empty stomach. You will also want to drink plain celery juice, as it’s recommend not to add additional ingredients to the celery juice on the parodical.
Blender Institutions:
You will need to use a high power blender to make juice in a blender. Trim the top and bottom of the bunch of celery and rinse the ribs. Pat dry with a towel.
To make celery juice in a blender you will need to chop the celery ribs into small chunks. Place the celery into a high-speed blender and cover with cold filtered water. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the celery is blended. Strain the blended celery through a fine-mesh strainer or a clean nut milk bag. Squeeze out excess juice and compost or discard the juice pulp.
