When you’re not sure what to do with some fresh produce in the fridge, instead of letting it go bad, consider juicing it to make a single-shot health drink. Yes, you can run fruits and veggies like carrots, apples and oranges through a juicer, but you can also use less-obvious produce that has great health benefits. Cabbage juice is rich in sulfur and iodine, which can have a detoxifying effect. Iceberg lettuce is rich in minerals and water, so it’s hydrating and can help support red blood cells. And have you thought about watermelon rind juice? It’s called "Mother Nature’s Viagra” because it’s rich in an amino acid called citrulline, which dilates blood vessels.
