Surprise: Celery Juice Will Not Cure All Of Your Health Issues – Self Magazine

OK, so I admit, the title of this article is a huge spoiler! But, you probably should of realized by now that ANY food with claims that promises the world should be looked at with skepticism. Hey, I have no idea how this love affair with celery juice began and not sure when it will end.
