1 cup (medium) of Parsley Juice (200 g) has 44 calories. That works out to 22 calories per 100 g. It contains 7.4 g of carbs, 4.2 g of protein, 0.8 g of fat and 3.2 g of fiber. Its 3280 µg of Vitamin K covers 2733% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 15 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Parsley juice is a bright green drink made by blending or pressing fresh parsley, often with water; some recipes add lemon for a sharper, brighter taste. It does not belong to one particular national cuisine, though parsley-based drinks are made in home kitchens in many places. The flavour is distinctly grassy and herbal, and the texture can be smooth or slightly pulpy depending on whether it is strained. Serve it chilled in a glass, on its own or alongside a meal. It is a light, low-calorie drink: the listed amount is 22 calories per 100 g. Keeping the pulp gives it a little more body and fibre; a squeeze of lemon pairs naturally with its fresh taste.

Parsley juice provides vitamin C and other plant antioxidants, but it is not a cure or a detox treatment. It can be a refreshing way to add parsley to your diet, though whole parsley also supplies fiber.
Blend rinsed parsley with water until smooth, then strain it if you prefer a thinner drink. You can add lemon for flavor, but parsley juice does not need special ingredients or a cleansing regimen.
No, parsley juice has not been shown to detox or cleanse the kidneys or liver. Those organs process waste naturally; parsley juice should not replace medical care or a treatment prescribed for a health condition.
No, parsley juice does not cause weight loss on its own. Choosing it instead of a sugary drink may reduce added sugar in your routine, but it does not burn fat or replace balanced meals.
Most healthy adults can have parsley juice in moderate amounts as part of a varied diet. Very concentrated or excessive amounts may cause stomach upset, and the juice should not replace water or meals.
Parsley used as a normal culinary herb is different from concentrated parsley juice or extracts. Their safety during pregnancy is not well established, so ask your healthcare professional before drinking parsley juice regularly.
Yes, you can drink parsley juice on an empty stomach if it feels comfortable. There is no good evidence that drinking it before food makes it more effective for weight loss, digestion, or detox.
No, parsley juice is not a proven way to pass or dissolve kidney stones. Stone treatment depends on the type and situation, so do not use parsley juice instead of care recommended by a clinician.
No, parsley juice is usually made from fresh, rinsed parsley blended with water. Boiling changes the flavor and texture; wash the leaves and stems well before blending, especially if you plan to drink the juice raw.
Fresh parsley juice is best consumed soon after blending. If you save some, refrigerate it promptly in a sealed container and use it within a short time; discard it if its smell, taste, or appearance changes.
