Was it the Medical Medium that put celery juice on the map? Or maybe it was Gwyneth Paltrow who made drinking celery juice an essential part of your morning routine. However it started, this is one trend that won’t be going away anytime soon. Why? Because the benefits of celery juice can’t be beaten.

Before you run to YouTube to find out how to make celery juice or invest in a pricey juicer, let’s explore the benefits of drinking celery juice.

Celery is rich in vitamins A, K, and C, it boasts potassium and folate (which is important for healthy cell growth and function), AND it has a low glycemic index meaning it won’t increase your blood sugar levels. It’s also high in minerals like magnesium, iron, and sodium, which can help balance stomach acid and restore digestive health.

Did you know that starting your day by sipping celery juice can help you fight back against free radicals? Thanks to the vitamins listed above—especially vitamin C—celery has the power to protect cells, blood vessels, and organs.

The term “stomach acid” may sound unappealing but it’s essential for gut health. Celery has properties that help restore hydrochloric acid in the gut, which breaks down food so your body can digest food faster and more efficiently.

Celery is a great source of phytonutrients, which can reduce inflammation in the digestive tract. It helps lower oxidative stress and can have a calming effect on the stomach.

Celery helps neutralize stomach acid and balance pH levels in the body. A more balanced body means improved overall health. That’s worth its weight in celery juice if you ask us.

Sure, you could buy an expensive juicer and spend hours prepping, juicing, and bottling your own celery juice...and then spend more time cleaning your juicer (cringe!). Or you could make instant celery juice by mixing 1 teaspoon of our Gut Feeling Mix into water.

Not only is it a much easier way to support your gut health, but it boasts more health benefits than your average celery juice, too!

Thanks to its powerful superfood ingredients (including jerusalem artichoke, lemon balm, and of course...celery), this prebiotic mix supports digestive health with dietary fiber and digestive enzymes. When taken daily, it encourages the growth of healthy bacteria, helps balance your gut microbiome, and can reduce constipation and bloating.
