I have been eating two large stalks of celery with lite laughing cow cheese (35 calories) for the past month, one mid morning and the other in the afternoon. It has helped with my eating healthy goal! The crunch from the celery and the flavor from the laughing cow has kept me away from the chips at my office snack shack! The new blue cheese and Chipotle flavers are the best!!!! If Doritoes are your down fall when having a bad day try the Chipolte with the celery.

I love celery and in short it replaced my night snacks. Every weekend I buy a bag of 4 celeries from costco and after cutting place them in plastic container with water. After 10-12 hours the sticks become so crunchy that you have to try it. from nutrition stand point it is among healtiest and considering negative calories no fear how much you ate. Fibers work as resin and lower the cholesterol, Blood sugar (they are compound sugar). It is green with lots of Vitamines which are mostly antioxidant in other word anticancer and ANTIAGING, ANTIWRINKLE and etc. More…..

It does constain cellulose as per published research,(example;Kennedy et al 2007 found at http://www.springerlink.com/content/h272j12545384617/) and this is why u burn calories to digest it! U can eat some of the the leaves too. These would be more comparable to a leafy herb like parsley, but going on texture alone I would say celery leaves too are probably higher in cellulose than parsley.

Yeah, but I heard that the reason you burn calories to digest it, is because it has cellulose, which is very hard to digest. Is there any truth to that?
