Celery juice is one of the most popular natural detox and wellness drinks. It’s rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, C, and K, and powerful plant compounds that help cleanse your liver, improve digestion, and reduce inflammation. Drinking celery juice daily on an empty stomach may promote clearer skin, better hydration, and a more balanced metabolism.
