Lettuce is a leafy green vegetable that looks like cabbage but has more water content and not as tough but crunchier.

It is a rich source of vitamins A, C, K, potassium.
Its vitamin A content regenerates the skin and increases cell turnover.

Vitamin C gives protection from ultraviolet radiation and therefore delays wrinkles snd prevents skin cancer. Vitamin K gives strenght to hair follicles resulting in thick, beautiful hair.

Potassium improves blood circulation and helps in supplying oxygen and other nutrients to the skin and prevent graying of the hair.

Lettuce has fibre that is a good detox for your system and translates to a glowing skin. The omega -3 fatty acids contributes to its anti-inflammatory property and improves skin and hair health.

Lettuce induces sleep helping you treat insomnia which causes puffy eyes and dark circles.

Packed with antioxidants that destroy free radicals and thus, prevents premature ageing.

Wash your face with lettuce juice every morning to improve skin texture.

Eat the leaves alone regularly or include as a topping in salads to enjoy the benefits.
