Liver-Detoxing Sparkling Ginger Celery Juice | 疏肝姜芹气泡水
Description:
While the recent “celery juice diet” trend has made celery a superstar, celery has been praised and used for a long, long time in cuisines all over the world. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), celery is a cooling-cold vegetable that is great for the liver system. By combining ginger with celery, we neutralize the energetics of celery juice (which is cooling) to make it easier on the stomach and suitable for even colder weather. The addition of sparkling water and lemon makes the juice more palatable for those who don’t like the taste of celery. This post is sponsored by Elix Healing.
