I haven’t liked celery for a long time because it has such a strong smell that scarred me for so many years! My sister mashed it into a pulp and put it by the fire when my mom was pregnant with our 3rd sister and said it was for the baby. The smell was so nasty that I haven’t partaken since I was about 8. But that has now changed! When I learned about all the incredible health benefits of drinking celery juice, I decided it was worth it to give it a shot to help me heal from my Epstein-Barr. My doctor said that he and his wife started drinking it and it has literally changed their lives and their health so drastically he will never go another day without drinking it. I have been drinking celery juice every day for over two months now, and I am so excited to share what I’ve learned with you guys!
The Amazing Benefits of Celery Juice
I started reading this book for my Epstein-Barr which talks about a lot of ailments including migraines, autoimmune disorders and chronic fatigue syndrome. It’s INCREDIBLE. I am now reading this book for thyroid healing (which causes many problems and a lot of people are suffering from even if they don’t know it!) and celery juice is a major factor in healing your body.
Celery juice is literally so easy to make – if you’re intimidated by it, don’t be! 🙂 I’ll walk you through the steps!
First, just cut and wash the celery. Then turn on your juicer and feed the celery through one piece at a time. I buy organic celery from Sprouts and they work great. I juice one bunch every day and drink the juice. It’s best fresh because the nutrients start to die after 12 hours. The juice comes out one side, and the pulp out the other! When it’s done, I run the pulp through one more time to get more juice out. Then I CHUG and that’s all there is to it! Just let it sit in your empty stomach for about 15 minutes before eating anything else. According to the Medical Medium, drinking it first thing in the morning can strengthen your digestion of the rest of the food you eat throughout the day!
This juicer has been amazing and it’s so easy to clean! It’s easy to use and it’s quick set up and clean up. It only takes me about 20 seconds to set it up. It’s really not time-consuming, which is a huge plus for me! To read about more of my favorite kitchen gadgets, click HERE.

Jenica, thanks for doing a blog post on celery juicing! I also have Epstein Barr virus and have been juicing celery for about 1.5 months now but haven’t read up on all the benefits until now, so I appreciate all the info you provided. Thanks for sharing your health journey so I could also get control over mine!
