Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
The UCLA School of Public Health recently finished a study that found that men and women who ate a cup of salad each day had higher concentrations of folic acid, vitamins C and E, lycopene and alpha and beta carotene in the bloodstream than men and women who did not. Because many people do not get enough nutrients even when taking nutritional supplements, this is good news to anyone who can make room in their diet for an additional 90grams (1 cup) of salad on a daily basis.
Salad, as it was counted in the study, is considered to be raw vegetables, salad greens (lettuce, etc) and dressing. Scientists say that the results of this study should help to dispell the concerns that they body may have difficulty absorbing nutritents from raw vegetables, though a little bit of low fat dressing couldn't hurt - not to mention that salads are just a little bit more interesting with an added layer of flavor.

And as far as making room for a salad in your diet, you can add one without dressing for about 50 calories. Maybe that is the time you over eat?!?!

The bagged salads don't have much variety ( sometimes just carrots and iceberg lettuce) and iceberg doesn't bring much to the table, nutritionally.
