（與中國人所說的不一樣，並沒有提到降血壓、血脂。

而且特別在副作用中提到，這汁含鈉高，對因心血管疾病而服用血液稀釋劑的人不宜。

也許這是中國芹菜和美國芹菜的區別。）

 

Possible side effects of drinking celery juice

If you’re jumping on the celery juice band wagon, there are some important things to note. For one, people on a low sodium diet may want to skip celery juice, as Dr. Lee notes celery juice is reported to have a higher level of sodium compared to other juices. People who are on blood thinning medications for heart cardiovascular conditions are also advised to avoid the popular green juice. “Celery also has a high level of vitamin K, which is known to have a blood thinning effect,” Dr. Lee says.

 

 

其實，許多中國學者亦指出：芹菜降壓不靠譜

芹菜能降血壓的說法並非毫無根據，它其中確實有一些成分有降血壓的潛在功效。但這些有效成分也僅僅說明吃芹菜可能對降血壓有幫助，不等於吃芹菜能起到治療作用。而且芹菜汁，即便在不放鹽的情況下，鈉含量也比較高，100g的芹菜(莖)含0.4g鈉!

而過量攝入鈉會使得血壓升高，本身高血壓患者就應該少吃鹽，如果每天喝一大杯芹菜汁(相當於淡鹽水)，血壓可能不僅沒有降下來，反而還會升高，到時候後悔就來不及了。
