Celery is often thought of as an “empty” food made mostly of water, however it is a good source of potassium, magnesium, calcium and vitamins A, B, C and K. The possible health benefits of celery and its seeds include lowering inflammation, reducing the risk of cancer, reducing blood pressure and preventing age-related vision loss.  Celery is a good source of nutrition and fiber.  Click here to learn more.

  5. Add the stock and bring to a simmer.
