Celery has won people's favor with its unique aroma, is rich in nutrients, has good health benefits, and is praised as "the most beautiful vegetable". However, attention should be paid when consuming it: 5 groups of people should eat less celery!
1. People with low blood pressure
Celery has the effect of lowering blood pressure, so people with low blood pressure should not eat too much.
2. People with weak spleen and stomach cold
"Ben Hui Yan" records: "Those with a weak spleen and stomach and deficient middle qi are forbidden from eating it." Because celery is cool and slippery in nature, people with a weak spleen and stomach, abdominal pain, and diarrhea should not eat too much.

3. Men in their reproductive period
According to reports, doctors abroad have found through experiments that eating more celery can inhibit the production of male hormones and affect fertility. This condition can return to normal after several months of stopping eating celery, so men in their reproductive period should not eat too much.
4. Dermatitis patients
Celery is a vegetable with strong photosensitivity. Eating too much can easily lead to an increase of photosensitive substances in the body. At this time, if exposed to strong light, it will react with sunlight, causing skin inflammation such as photodermatitis.
5. Patients with scabies and疥癣
Celery contains a small amount of furanocoumarin, which can easily cause dermatitis. If infected by mold, the content will increase rapidly. People who are frequently or in large contact with it often develop herpetic dermatitis on their arms and between fingers, but it does not constitute a public hazard, and only vegetable farmers in the production area need to pay attention to it. As for patients with scabies and疥癣, it is best not to eat it.
