Is Celery Juice Worth the Hype?
My wellness journey took an unexpected turn when I discovered Anthony William's book "Cleanse to Heal." Today, I'm sharing my personal experience with celery juice and how it transformed my approach to morning wellness routines.
Store-Bought vs. Homemade
After being inspired by William's simple cleanse protocol, I initially tried store-bought celery juice. However, I quickly discovered that commercial versions often contain additional ingredients that compromise the juice's benefits. The store-bought version was overwhelmingly salty and didn't align with William's recommendations.
Determined to experience the benefits, I started making celery juice at home using a basic blender. The process was simple: blend celery with water and strain out the pulp. The result? A significantly better-tasting juice that actually delivered results.
My Initial Results
Clearer, more radiant skin
Improved digestion
Reduced brain fog
Despite the initial success, I fell off the celery juice wagon after finishing my cleanse until I ran into this women at my local tanning salon. I met a radiant mother of two in her 30s whose glowing skin. Her secret? Daily morning celery juice, following Anthony William's protocol.
The Cold-Press Juicer
Thanks to my boyfriend's thoughtful Christmas gift - a cold-press juicer - I've now elevated my celery juice game. The quality and taste of cold-pressed celery juice are unmatched, making my daily routine something I genuinely look forward to.
Some of the benefits include:
Higher nutrient retention: Cold-press juicers don't generate heat during extraction, which helps preserve more vitamins, minerals, and enzymes
Better juice quality: The slow crushing and pressing process extracts more juice and produces less foam and separation
Longer shelf life: Cold-pressed juice stays fresh longer because the slow process creates less oxidation
Less waste: These juicers extract more juice from produce, making them more cost-effective in the long run
Quieter operation: Unlike centrifugal juicers, cold-press machines run quietly, perfect for early morning juicing
Versatility: Cold-press juicers can handle a wider variety of produce, including leafy greens and soft fruits
