Nutritional value 1. Lettuce is rich in water, with every 100 grams of edible part containing up to 94% to 96% water, so it is crisp and refreshing when eaten raw, and especially tender. Every 100 grams of edible part also contains 1-1.4 grams of protein, 1.8-3.2 grams of carbohydrates, 10-15 milligrams of vitamin C and some minerals. 2. Lettuce contains more dietary fiber and vitamin C than cabbage, which can help eliminate excess fat, so it is also called weight-loss lettuce. 3. Because its stems and leaves contain lactucin, it tastes slightly bitter and has the effects of analgesia, hypnosis, lowering cholesterol, and assisting in the treatment of neurasthenia. 4. Lettuce contains effective ingredients such as mannitol, which has diuretic and blood circulation promoting effects. 5. Lettuce contains an "interferon inducer" that can stimulate normal cells in the human body to produce interferon, thereby producing an "antiviral protein" to inhibit viruses.

However, radishes are cold foods, so those with yin deficiency should eat them cooked. The nutritional content of some foods is different when eaten raw or cooked. For example, tomatoes contain lycopene, which can reduce the risk of prostate cancer and liver cancer. If you want to consume it, you should eat it cooked. But if you want to take vitamin C, it would be better to eat it raw because vitamin C is easily lost during cooking.
