What does celery juice do for your skin?

“Celery is 95 percent water,” says celebrity nutritionist Kimberly Snyder. “When it comes to skin, hydration is key.” Plus, with a high natural sodium content, celery juice raises stomach acid, which helps break down food—improving gut health and, in turn, lowering stress levels and brightening skin.

Move over, spirulina—there’s a trendy new power green in town. Celery juice is having a moment, surfacing everywhere from farm-to-table menus to artfully constructed Instagram posts. And for good reason: The parsley family plant is packed with natural substances that help purify the bloodstream, aid in digestion, and clear up skin problems. “Celery is 95 percent water,” says celebrity nutritionist Kimberly Snyder. “When it comes to skin, hydration is key.” Plus, with a high natural sodium content, celery juice raises stomach acid, which helps break down food—improving gut health and, in turn, lowering stress levels and brightening skin. What’s more? The magical drink is also loaded with vitamin A, which may positively affect hair, says Snyder, “providing nourishment to the roots while also stimulating growth and overall texture.” Although the bland-tasting plant is often overlooked in the superfood arena, passed over for leafy greens, vibrant carrots, and colorful courgettes, it deserves a space on the refrigerator shelf, says Snyder. For her, the ideal daily drink recipe incorporates celery for its “powerful healing benefits”—and she’s not talking about a spicy Bloody Mary that’s served with a stalk or two. In fact, the Los Angles–based expert suggests passing celery, and other fruits and vegetables for that matter, through a Vitamix before consuming. When juiced, “the benefits are truly magnified,” says Snyder, because “you are helping your body absorb the maximum amount of nutrition possible.” As for the recommended dose, Snyder suggests drinking 16 ounces first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Consider it the first step toward a 360-degree approach to a healthy diet and lifestyle. Below, an exclusive recipe by Snyder, for your best glow yet.
