Red Coral Lettuce
RM7.50Coral lettuce, also known as loose-leaf lettuce, varies in shape, color, and texture — though it’s usually crisp, ruffled, and dark green or red, with a flavor ranging from mild to sweet.
Unlike other lettuces, it doesn’t grow around a head. Instead, its leaves come together at a stem.
A 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of either green or red leaf lettuce gives the following nutrients (20Trusted Source, 21Trusted Source):
| Leaf lettuce, green | Leaf lettuce, red | |
| Calories | 15 | 13 |
| Protein | 2 grams | 1.5 grams |
| Fiber | 1 gram | 1 gram |
| Folate | 10% of the DV | 9% of the DV |
| Iron | 5% of the DV | 7% of the DV |
| Manganese | 11% of the DV | 9% of the DV |
| Potassium | 4% of the DV | 4% of the DV |

Both types are high in vitamin A, beta carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin, all of which support eye and skin health (9, 11Trusted Source, 12Trusted Source, 18Trusted Source).
However, red leaf lettuce contains much higher levels of phenolic compounds. In particular, its anthocyanins and quercetin act as potent antioxidants that protect your body from free radical damage (9, 22Trusted Source, 23Trusted Source).

This lettuce is a good source of carotenoid antioxidants, such as beta carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. These protect your eyes from macular degeneration, a condition that can result in partial vision loss (18Trusted Source).
Furthermore, butterhead contains higher amounts of iron than other lettuces. This nutrient is essential for creating red blood cells (9, 19Trusted Source).
Keep in mind that plants provide only non-heme iron, which is poorly absorbed. As vitamin C helps increase your absorption, consider eating butterhead lettuce with a food high in this vitamin, such as red peppers (19Trusted Source).
