What it has: Greens contain natural antioxidants and provide a plethora of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamins A, K, C and foliate.
Why you should eat more: All greens are good for you, and the darker the better. But unlike other greens like kale or collards, romaine needs no cooking or special preparation, is palatable to almost everyone and is available virtually everywhere- Caesar salad, anyone?
How to up your intake: Most people imagine themselves to be bovine victims when asked to eat lettuce but it easy to fall in love with this leaf. Instead of looking at eating it whole, tear it into small bits and toss into your favourite salad. Lavished with the yummy dressing. Romaine lettuce is irresistible. You could also use a generous bed of lettuce in sandwiches. The bread may be cooked but the power of the Romaine is a raw burst of goodness.
