Q: You say apples and celery get rid of water weight.
I tried it yesterday and sure enough, that knocked off a large amount of water weight in one day.

You dont say WHY celery works.

How does celery get rid of water weight? What properties are the cause?

A: Hi Adam, So glad that celery worked for you! Celery is one of those vegetables that is widely used and known as an effective diuretic.

Celery is rich in potassium and natural sodium, which are important minerals that help regulate fluid balance in your body. Because it helps to regulate the fluids, your body will stimilate urine production to fix the balance, and then carries out the excess water weight.

Hope that helps.
