PINEAPPLE CORE
菠萝中间部分

The core of a pineapple is high in bromelain (‘nature’s aspirin’) which reduces pain and inflammation. There’s also plenty of fiber as vitamins and minerals. The core can be a bit hard and unappetizing so you can stick it in a blender for a smoothie or boil it to consume its goodness.
菠萝中间部分的菠萝蛋白酶含量（‘纯天然阿司匹林’）十分高，能够减轻疼痛和炎症。同样也富含纤维素、维他命和矿物质。菠萝的中间部分可能会有点硬，也没那么好吃，但你可以把它们放在搅拌机里搅拌喝汁，或者放到水里煮沸，可以更加美味。

CELERY LEAVES

CORN SILK
玉米须

Corn silk – the fine threads on corn on the cob – can be made into tea which has been used to treat an array of health issues. Most commonly, corn silk is used to treat urinary tract infections due to its properties as a diuretic. The liquid can also be used to lower and control blood pressure due to it not having side effects like many over-the-counter medicines. Corn silk tea can also relieve persistent itching around the area of a bite or a rash.
玉米须——玉米芯上的细线——可以用来泡茶，人们已用这种方法治疗了很多的健康问题。最为普遍的是，由于玉米须的利尿属性，因此可用来食疗尿路感染。这种玉米须茶还能用来降低和控制血压，因为它和很多非处方药不一样，不会有副作用。玉米须茶还可以缓解蚊虫叮咬或红疹引起的持续性发痒。

STRAWBERRY LEAVES
草莓蒂

The leaves of strawberries can be brewed in tea and used to alleviate gastrointestinal problems such as a stomach ache. The leaves can also help improve digestion. Strawberry leaves can reduce pain and inflammation of joints as they are a diuretic, which helps the body drain out excess water.

WATERMELON SEEDS
西瓜籽

According to Mello – a watermelon company – the blank seeds inside the watermelon that we all spit out are actually full of nutrition. Once seeds have been sprouted, dried and shelled, 100 grams of seeds give you 34g of protein as well as magnesium and help strengthen your bones. The rind of watermelon can be used to improve blood flow because it is high in citrulline.
