Cleansing Celery Soup

This celery soup is light, flavorful and makes for a perfect cleansing meal. Celery fights inflammation, is healing for the gut, lowers cholesterol, lowers blood pressure and is super high in antioxidants. The digestive benefits of celery are partly due to its diuretic effects - and also because it boosts circulation within the intestines, therefore helping improve digestion and relieving bloating and puffiness from water retention. The insoluble fiber found in celery has strong pre-biotic effects - supporting the growth of good bacteria in our gut.

Serve with a sprinkle of fresh dill and a squeeze of lemon. Salt + pepper to taste.
