Alface Iceberg, commonly known as Iceberg lettuce, is a crisp and refreshing variety of lettuce widely used in salads, sandwiches, and wraps. Originating from the United States in the early 20th century, its mild flavor and crunchy texture have made it a staple in Western cuisine. Nutritionally, Iceberg lettuce is low in calories and a good source of hydration, as it consists of nearly 95% water. It provides small amounts of vitamins A and K, as well as fiber, contributing to overall digestive and skin health. However, compared to darker greens like spinach or kale, Iceberg lettuce has fewer nutrients, making it less nutrient-dense. While it can be a healthy addition to meals, pairing it with nutrient-rich vegetables and proteins can enhance its nutritional benefits, offering a balanced approach to its consumption.
