Celery (greens)

CELERY (greens)
      Celery greens contain more vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B9 (folic acid), vitamin C (ascorbic acid), carotenoids, iron, and magnesium than root vegetables. Celery greens also significantly exceed root vegetables in galactose content.
      Celery greens stand out for their beta-carotene content (90.0% of the daily requirement in 100 g), vitamin C (ascorbic acid) (54.3%), vitamin K (phylloquinone) (24.4%), vitamin B2 (riboflavin) (16.8%), and folic acid (9.0%).
    The predominant mineral elements are: rubidium (153.0%), boron (103.1%), vanadium (60.5%), iron (25.3%), potassium (17.2%), sodium (15.4%), magnesium (12.5%), copper (10.3%), manganese (10.0%), silicon (9.7%), phosphorus (9.6%), nickel (9.3%), cobalt (8.6%), strontium (8.6%), lithium (8.2%), sulfur (8.0%).
   Celery greens contain phytosterols (10.9% of the daily norm in 100 g), predominantly beta-sitosterol (7.8%).
    Carbohydrates are dominated by pectin (24.0% of the daily norm in 100 g) and fiber (15.2%). 100 g of celery (leaves) contains the daily norm of galactose. Celery greens also contain small amounts of sucrose (0.11 g per 100 g) and starch (0.1 g per 100 g).
     The total purine base content in 100 g of celery greens is 23.3% of the daily requirement.

The oxalic acid content in 100 g is 61.2 mg, which is 15.3% of the maximum permissible daily intake (for more details, see Rhubarb).

     It should also be noted that celery greens can accumulate the toxic trace element strontium.
