Is celery juice a miracle cure-all? No, sadly. Is it healthy? Yes! — Many claims have been made about celery juice. "It can cure X, Y, and Z." "It healed my relationship with my father." "It did my taxes for me!" — Unfortunately, there's really no evidence for these claims other than anecdotal stories from avid believers. I'm not saying they're wrong, but when assessing the claims, they are simply very hard to believe from a mechanistic standpoint. — Here is a video with over a million views with the proposed benefits of celery juice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tScF4IrG95U Some the implied claims include "It can save your life." "It can get you off all your medications." "It can cure your autoimmunity." — Celery juice is indeed very healthy—it's full of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, flavanoids, and water. It is certainly a great addition to anyones diet, but so would be eating 3 stalks of celery every single day. Or eating a large salad every day (cough cough). That said, none of these modification, in isolation, would be expected to cure any disease, unless you have scurvy. 🙃 — So I'm glad that people are finding that adding celery juice is part of the equation that is helping them feel better (probably along with some other lifestyle changes and a hefty dose of the placebo effect), but you certainly don't need to do it, especially because it can be extremely expensive and it can eat up your budget for other healthy foods. — I'm always open to other perspectives though. Has celery juice worked for you? Let me know! I'm curious to hear your thoughts. — Love you guys! ❤️ Max • • • • • #cleaneating #healthyfood #glutenfree #healthyeating #nutrition #healthylifestyle #paleo #fitfood #healthyliving #healthychoices #weightloss #protein #organic #paleodiet #whole30 #primal #instafit #healthylife #plantbased #cleaneats #lowcarb #celeryjuice #jerf #paleolifestyle #comidadeverdade #celeryjuicebenefits #geniusfoods #dairyfree #medicalmedium
You may know me only from my wacky (and hopefully informative) Instagram posts, my book #GeniusFoods, or my podcast #TheGeniusLife, but I've been grateful to be able to reach all types of people on a variety of platforms and with a range of backgrounds. — Here is a chapter on the Prevention of Cognitive Decline in a textbook used by healthcare professionals which I have co-authored, just released. Dr. Richard Isaacson, who invited me to collaborate on this work, I would consider one of the foremost experts on the prevention of cognitive decline as well as a MAJOR mentor for me who I have learned a TON from over the past 5 years, particularly how unique each person/patient is. — It's fairly well known that it takes a long time for your average scientific discovery to go from "bench to bedside," which means that there is a big translational gap between what is discovered in research to be applied in the clinic. Most physicians are not adequately taught about nutrition, and especially where the brain is concerned there is a huge knowledge gap! That's why I'm humbled to get to get to teach doctors and play a tiny role in helping to change point of care. — Though this is aimed at clinicians to teach the new and evolving practice of dementia prevention, all of my own findings, perspectives and experience is baked into my book #GeniusFoods which I've written independently with my friend @paulgrewalMD for people of ALL levels of knowledge. I hope you get to check it out.
