Celery, rich in insoluble fiber, calcium, magnesium, potassium and carotene, is also an excellent source of B vitamins and vitamin C.
Compared with other leafy vegetables, the advantage lies in convenience, no need to choose vegetables, convenient cleaning, chopping in half and chopping can be put into the pot.
As for taste, it is an antidote for some people and a poison for others. After all, it is the same party as coriander and belongs to Umbelliferae.
However, as to which of celery leaves and celery stems is nutritious, many people will not struggle too much, because usually the leaves will be thrown away directly.
Strictly speaking, what we eat is celery leaves. Long stems are petioles, not stems.
Celery stems are crisp to eat, much like [dietary fiber], but celery leaves are definitely not satisfied.
Celery leaves are more exposed to sunlight than celery stems, and naturally synthesize more nutrients than stems.
Nicotinic acid, vitamin B2 and vitamin C in celery leaves are more than twice as much as those in stems, mineral magnesium is 3.2 times as much as those in stems, and carotene is 8.6 times as much as those in stems.
So celery petioles are not worth eating?
No, celery petioles are rich in calcium and potassium, and there are many petioles.
It is said that eating celery kills sperm?
After rumors of cola spermicide, mobile phone spermicide and coffee spermicide fell down, rumors of celery spermicide stood up again.
