Celery

Celery is actually not a bad choice for occassional gutloading, especially in terms of providing a water/hydration source for the feeders. in addition to water, celery also provides some Riboflavin, B6, Magnesium, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Folate, Potassium, salt, a little iron, and it has more calcium than phosphorus. Do note however that celery contains some Oxalic Acid and thus should probably not be a frequent gutload choice.
