What is this food?
AI-assisted Celery leaves and petioles (the stalks). It’s a low-calorie, crunchy vegetable commonly used for flavor and added texture in soups, stir-fries, and salads.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Celery is a good add-on to meals because it brings dietary fiber (about 2.6 g per 100 g), which helps keep you full and supports healthy digestion. It also has low calories (around 25 kcal per 100 g) and very low fat and cholesterol, making it easy to include in your daily 3 meals plus 1–2 snacks. It’s not a major source of sodium (only about 14 mg per 100 g), so it’s a helpful choice when you’re watching salt—just remember the total sodium can rise depending on the dish’s seasonings.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Use celery as a volume add-on: add it to ulam, soups, or stir-fries so your meal feels more filling without adding many calories.
- Pair it with protein and healthy carbs for balance (e.g., fish, chicken, tofu, or eggs + rice or root crops in appropriate portions).
- If you’re snacking, try celery sticks with hummus or a small serving of low-salt dip instead of salty snacks.
- Go easy on salty sauces (soy sauce, patis, seasoning mixes) since these can quickly increase sodium.
