celery

Ingredients:  Here is an extensive and thorough list of what this juice contains: celery. 

Celery is a complex plant composed of various compounds and elements that make up its structure. However, providing an exhaustive list down to the smallest known particles (such as individual atoms or subatomic particles) for every compound in celery would be extremely detailed and complex, considering that celery is made up of numerous organic and inorganic compounds. Below is a breakdown of the main components and some of the molecules found in celery at a biochemical level:

1. Water (H₂O) Molecule: Water molecules, composed of two hydrogen (H) atoms bonded to one oxygen (O) atom. Atoms: Oxygen and hydrogen atoms. Subatomic particles: Protons, neutrons, and electrons within the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.

2. Carbohydrates: Cellulose (in the cell walls): A complex carbohydrate made of glucose molecules. Molecule: C₆H₁₀O₅ (Glucose unit). Atoms: Carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). Subatomic particles: Protons, neutrons, and electrons. Fructose and glucose (in smaller amounts as sugars): Simple sugars found in celery. Molecule: C₆H₁₂O₆. Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen.

3. Proteins: Amino acids: Building blocks of proteins (e.g., glycine, glutamine, and asparagine). Molecule: Amino acids are composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen. Subatomic particles: Protons, neutrons, and electrons. Enzymes: Specialized proteins that speed up biochemical reactions in celery.

4. Lipids (Fats): Phospholipids: Components of cell membranes in celery. Molecule: Phosphatidylcholine (a common phospholipid). Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus. Subatomic particles: Protons, neutrons, and electrons. Fatty acids: Essential fatty acids found in small amounts.

5. Vitamins: Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid): An essential vitamin for celery, known for its antioxidant properties. Molecule: C₆H₈O₆. Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Vitamin K: Vital for blood clotting. Molecule: Phylloquinone (C₆₆H₈O₂). Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen.

6. Minerals: Calcium (Ca²⁺): Important for celery’s cell structure and human bone health: Ions: Calcium ions (Ca²⁺). Potassium (K⁺): Critical for maintaining electrolyte balance. Ions: Potassium ions (K⁺). Magnesium (Mg²⁺): A cofactor for many enzymes in celery. Ions: Magnesium ions (Mg²⁺). Sodium (Na⁺): Found in trace amounts. Ions: Sodium ions (Na⁺).

7. Phytochemicals: Flavonoids: Such as apigenin, luteolin, and kaempferol, which have antioxidant properties. Molecule: These compounds are phenolic in structure, consisting of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. Coumarins: Organic compounds that have anti-inflammatory properties.

8. Organic Acids: Citric acid: Found in celery and contributes to its acidic taste. Molecule: C₆H₈O₇. Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen.

9. Fiber: Cellulose: A complex carbohydrate in the form of fiber. Molecule: C₆H₁₀O₅ (Glucose units in a long chain). Atoms: Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen.

10. Water-Soluble and Fat-Soluble Compounds: Amino acids: Like asparagine and glutamine. Molecule: C₄H₈N₂O₃ (AsparagineAtoms: Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen. Essential fatty acids: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in small amounts. Nitrogenous Compounds Nitrates (NO₃⁻): Trace amounts found in celery, contributing to its nutritional profile. Ion: Nitrate ion (NO₃⁻). Atoms: Nitrogen, oxygen.
