How to make celery juice

CELERY JUICE TIPS
If you want to heal and improve your health quickly and efficiently, try this routine:
Drink 16 ounces or more of celery juice on an empty stomach every morning.
Make sure it’s fresh, plain celery juice with no other ingredients.
Celery juice is a medicinal, not a caloric drink, so you’ll still need breakfast afterward.
Simply wait at least 15 to 30 minutes after drinking your celery juice before consuming anything else.
If you’re sensitive and 16 ounces is too much, start with a smaller amount and work your way up. You can also drink more than 16 ounces.
Many people love to drink 32 ounces daily.
