  What is the equivalent of celery in Tamil? Green capsicum is the big one (shimla mirch) or the usual pachai milakaai?
  I am having high blood pressure and taking Atenolol 50mg twice a day. So I am interested in this diet. Please elobarate, Latha.

  It is called Ajmoda in Hindi/Urdu and it will be same like our Coriander Leaves and in the family of Parsley, used widely by Europeans as we use coriander leaves.

  You mean Oamam? a most popular home remedy for gastric troubles acidity etc and a part of almost all important North Indian curry recipes? (ayamOdakam in Malayalam?)

  Hi,celery is a stem which is used here in USA.It is added in salads,soups and currys.It looks like keerai thandu(not exactly).It has high fibre.

  Ramdas,
  celery is different from Omam.Celery is a stem,which is consumed.
  About the drink ..I think you can consume all fresh fruits and vegetables.
  apple peices(NOT fully ripened)
  Ginger a small piece
  carrot
  any one (greens)- keerai-a fist full
  cucumber
  tomato
  green grapes a few
  celery
  lemon juice
  Orange
  Beet root(optional)blend them filter it and drink a glaas of this juice in empty stomach.This is told by a Naturopathy doctor.

  Green capsicum is kodai milakai. The big version of green chilli minus the spiciness

  Thanks for the pictures of celery. Now I understand. This is very much available in all veg. shops in Switz (where I am presently living). But I have never seen it commonly in Chennai. Have to search for it when I go there in "Ooty kaaykari kadai".
  Latha, kodai miLakaai is "Shimla mirch".
