Celery is rich in potassium and vitamins, among which potassium can reduce edema in women's legs and help to keep slim.
At the same time, the medicinal effect of celery is also scientifically verified, which can enhance the dilatability of blood vessels, balance diastolic blood pressure and systolic blood pressure, improve myocardial function, and have obvious effects on treating hypertension and other diseases.
However, for the sake of hygiene and safety, I suggest you wash the celery and blanch it with boiling water before eating. After all, you are still worried about pesticides and things like that.
