I like to throw away celery leaves every time I eat celery, but my sister said it’s a pity to lose it. Want to know if celery leaves have nutritional value?

    Celery leaves have certain nutritional value. Strictly speaking, celery is not a green leafy vegetable, it is mainly a tender stem. Many people discard the leaves when eating celery. It is a pity that celery leaves have higher nutritional value than celery stems. For example, celery leaves have a carotene content of 2930 micrograms /100g, celery stalks are only 340μg/100g. In addition to carotene, celery stems and leaves are also rich in vitamin C, potassium, dietary fiber and flavonoids, etc., with high nutritional value.
