Hi PD,
Yes I do juice when I bother to take the time. I like to also make gaspacio type drinks ( in the blender) with tomatoes, parsely, celantro, romain, water cress, garlic, lemon juice a bit of olive oil. What you like makes it good. Explore. The Italians add a bit of toasted breadcrumb for texture and serve as a cold soup.
Let me know what you find on calcium as well.
Blessings, Woodie
