Nutrition & facts
- Celery is extremely low in calories and carbohydrates.
- It contains small amounts of vitamin A, vitamin K, potassium, and folate.
- Celery contains antioxidants like apigenin and luteolin, though you should think of it primarily as a hydrating snack rather than a nutritional powerhouse.
Pet feeding highlights
Wash celery well and remove any dirt or pesticides. Offer it as a small, occasional treat; it is not a complete food. For pets, the crunchy stalks can be appealing, but portion control is important.
