Being bloated can be seriously frustrating and feel awful. And, while there are many products out there that might claim to help reduce bloat, celery juice is a great natural alternative that has been shown to help with bloating.

Holistic health coach Molly Alliman told Well+Good that "celery is a powerhouse vegetable with antioxidants, enzymes, and phytonutrients." She continued, saying, "Celery [root] is a natural diuretic, and along with its ability to help the liver flush toxins, it also can reduce bloat." Lori Welstead, a registered dietitian and nutritionist at the University of Chicago, agrees. She explained to the Chicago Tribune that, due to celery's high water content, it's able to curb bloating. Really, why wouldn't you drink celery juice every day if it could help you be less bloated?

Because celery juice is able to reduce bloating, it can also serve another function. "While celery juice isn't a magical cure for weight loss (is anything really?), it can help you lose weight," body image consultant and fitness and wellness expert Jennifer Cohen explained in an article for Forbes. "This is because it reduces bloating and aids the rest of your body to function at a more optimal level."
