elixir in his efforts to bring healing to loved ones, friends, and
community members. “I remember the first time I offered it in
1975 for a family member who had a back injury that wouldn’t
get better—and she didn’t believe in celery juice, didn’t believe
in anything,” he says. “I put the celery in one of those old, beat-up

In terms of healing, why is it better to
drink celery than to eat it?
Naysayers will say, “Oh, it’s a vegetable.
Try other vegetables. Make sure you eat
the fiber.” But celery is an herb. This is
an herbal tonic. When you’re juicing it,
you’re extracting the medicine from it.
You don’t want the fiber. Of course you
can eat celery sticks on the side and enjoy
them in a crudité or salad. But celery juice
is an herbal medicine in a larger quantity.
It moves the needle like nothing ever has.
So if you’re Keto, vegetarian, plant-based,
vegan, Paleo—whatever you do, however
you eat, however you plan on taking care
of your health—you bring in celery juice
and you have ailments, you’ll notice the
needle move and you won’t even believe
it. Because it is that weapon against
chronic illness.
What types of celery juice success stories
encourage your ongoing work?
There are people that deal with chronic
spasms, like neurological tics and spasms
in their throat where they can’t swallow or
breathe properly, and they’ve tried every
[remedy] for 10 straight years. And then
they drink celery juice for two weeks and
the problem goes away for the first time
in their lives. Debilitating cases of eczema
and psoriasis; uncomfortable cases of
acne; things like severe fatigue and
symptoms from Lyme disease, multiple
sclerosis, Hashimoto’s, and undiagnosed
illnesses; and brain fog where people
can’t even function or work or drive—and
celery juice has turned people around.
Lives have been saved. It’s medicine for
people who are struggling and think they
have tried everything.
How does celery juice work as an anti-
inflammatory?
The sodium cluster salts in celery juice kill
off the bugs that are creating inflammation.
Unless you’ve had a physical injury, every
form of inflammation is caused by pathogens,
by bugs. So when you eat wheat and a
smart doctor says, “You’re getting inflamed
from the wheat gluten”—why are you
getting inflamed when someone else isn’t?
It’s because you’ve got a bug that’s feeding
off that gluten. Gluten feeds bacteria.
Gluten feeds pathogens. Toxic heavy metals
and other poisons and toxins we have in
the body cause inflammation when bugs
eat them. Bugs have to eat heavy metals,
pesticides, pharmaceuticals, gluten, and
dairy to create inflammation. Celery juice is
minimizing bugs in people’s bodies.
How do sodium cluster salts work to heal
the digestive system?
The sodium cluster salt enters the stomach
glands—there are stomach glands, they
create gastric juice—and it revives them
because they become damaged as we’re
eating other things we shouldn’t be eating
over the years. When they become
damaged, you lose your hydrochloric acid
(HCI). Everybody gets low HCI. And then
blenders, strained the juice, and within days her back was
recovering for the first time.”
Williams has made believers out of countless others since his
2015 book, The Medical Medium, introduced the chronically ill
and other health seekers to the otherworldly wellness wisdom
that Williams, since age 4, says he has shared from a compas-
sionate entity he calls Spirit. “I was in nursing homes at age 18,
19, sitting by bedsides offering Medical Medium information—
which is Spirit’s advanced information given to me—giving
