OakLeaf Lettuce Red/Green

Lettuce is one of the most widely consumed vegetables in the world. It is a good source of bioactive compounds, which are beneficial to health, such as folate, β-carotene, lutein and phenols. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering and anti-diabetic activities attributed to these compounds. Nevertheless, they vary according to the type of lettuce. Lettuce is also said to have protective effects on cardiovascular health due to its many varieties of bioactive components. These components reportedly prevent tissue oxidation and participate in the lowering of blood pressure and mitigation of myocardial damage.
