If you read the caption you would see that while I’m not against celery juice- I am against it being promoted to do things that it probably won’t and people using it for that reason.

*in the case of celery juice, people who are on blood thinning medications need to be especially careful and absolutely talk to a doctor before drinking it as the high levels of vitamin K interfere with the medication.

*People with IBS also beware. Even as little as 15g of celery contains the amount of Mannitol (one of the FODMAP carbs) to induce an intolerance reaction.
