Lettuce, watercress, lamb salad… Salads are good to eat and are among the foods that can be eaten without restriction as they are full of health benefits.
The fight against constipation
Thanks to its high fiber content, lettuce contributes to the proper functioning of transit. It stimulates a lazy bowel and limits gas and bloating. They are especially rich in romaine lettuce and leaf lettuce.
Active for the skin
All types of salads contain interesting levels of vitamins. Among them are vitamin A, or beta-carotene, which gives good colors, or even B and C, which slow down cell aging.
Promotes healthy bones
Lettuce, on the other hand, is an excellent source of minerals. This food mainly contains iron and calcium, which contribute to the formation and strengthening of bones and teeth. Most of all – arugula (129 mg / 100 g).
Good for morale
Surprisingly, salad, especially lamb salad, is a good source of omega-3s. These fatty acids are essential for mental health. They help maintain a good nervous balance.
Thirst quencher
Like cucumber, green salad perfectly quenches thirst. This very low calorie vegetable plant – 100 grams represents an energy value of 16 calories (without seasoning) – contains 95% water.
