What is the difference between the calories you gain and the calories you lose when you eat celery?

Question

Calories are only energy, and I need to know what people benefit when they eat celery.

Answer 1

celery, it is one of the three vegetables considered the holy trinity (along with onions and bell peppers) of Louisiana Creole and Cajun cuisine. It is also one of the three vegetables (together with onions and carrots) that constitute the French mirepoix, which is often used as a base for sauces and soups.


Medicinal uses
The whole plant is gently stimulant, nourishing, and restorative; it can be liquefied, with the juice taken for joint and urinary tract inflammations, such as rheumatoid arthritis, cystitis, or urethritis, for weak conditions, and for nervous exhaustion.

The seeds, harvested after the plant flowers in its second year, are the basis for a homeopathic extract used as a diuretic. The extract is believed to help clear toxins from the system, so are especially good for gout, where uric acid crystals collect in the joints, and arthritis. They are also used as a mild digestive stimulant. The extract can be combined with almond or sunflower oil, and massaged into arthritic joints or for painful gout in the feet or toes.

The root is an effective diuretic and has been taken for urinary stones and gravel. It also acts as a bitter digestive remedy and liver stimulant. A tincture can be used as a diuretic in hypertension and urinary disorders, as a component in arthritic remedies, or as a kidney energy stimulant and cleanser.

Answer 2

Celery has about 6 calories per 8-inch stalk. The real caloric expenditure doesn't come from chewing though. It comes from the digestion of the stalk. All told, chewing and digesting a celery stalk probably consumes 15-20 calories. However, considering that you need to burn 3,500 calories to lose a single pound, eating celery alone is not going to cause you to lose gobs of weight.

Answer 3

Celery is high in fiber so it will help you digest and excrete wastes more easily so you lose some weight there as for calories gained, it should be about 10 cal/long stick

Answer 4

Because celery is high in fiber, it is difficult for humans to digest, that it has 'negative calories' because human digestion burns more calories than can be extracted from the celery. However, the effect is negligible.
