Vitamin C, potassium, iron, calcium and magnesium.
It also contains glucosinolates which can support the liver in breaking down and eliminating toxins in the body.

Celery.
Probably the best thing you can eat for high blood pressure. It contains a strong phyto chemical called phthalides.
This helps relax the tissue of the artery walls and allows blood flow to increase, thus reducing blood pressure.

Xylitol is a sweetener derived originally from birch bark, from Finland, in the 1970's.

The name comes from the Greek word 'ξύλο' (kseelo) or wood. It is a sugar alcohol produced from hydrogenation of Xylose from wood and vegetables. It is a carbohydrate.

There are 3 calories per gram (compared to 4 in sugar) of Xylitol and it is as sweet as sugar.
It has lesser effect on blood sugar and doesn't spike insulin like normal sugar as it is very low on the glycemic index. It's considered safe as a sugar substitute, but can cause diarrhea and stomach cramps in certain individuals who are sensitive to it.
