Does celery help you to lose weight?

Answer 1

• In some ways it can be used to help people lose weight.

• However, it does not "make" you lose weight or cause weight loss.
• Also, celery has been claimed that it has 'negative calories'. A piece of celery has about 4 calories, but chewing it burns about 6 calories, so technically, it does have negative calories.

Answer 2

Celery has zero calories. So eating it alone without dips, peanut butter, etc. actually requires energy to metabolize it. So yes, it can help as a snack but that doesn't mean you can eat a ton of it and ton of junk food. A good, well balanced diet and exercise is the best way to lose weight. Be sure to eat lots of fruits and vegetables, as they help with the body in one way or another.

Answer 3

Yes and No. The celery is essentially stems, which absorb water (other fluids i do not know). so if you don't chew your celery very good and it hasn't digested yet, it does. The no part is that it most likely wont absorb non-water fluids.

*****No. Celery contains a lot of water, which is why it is preferred as a low calorie food. Salt intake retains water or fluid.

Answer 4

Celery helps your body, but you have to excercise. You can't lose weight by eating food.

Answer 5

yes but a very unhealthy way of doing it. eating celery actually takes more calories to digest then they actually have.

Answer 6

well, im not really sure, but i know that the dressing or dip you put on it can make you gain weight.
