The Nutritional Quality Potential of Microgreens, Baby Leaves, and Adult Lettuce: An Underexploited Nutraceutical Source

Eva Martinez-Ispizua et al.

Summary: This study compared the nutritional content of six lettuce landraces and five commercial varieties, and found higher levels of ascorbic acid and phenolics in the early stages. Red-leaf varieties stood out and were correlated with lettuce's antioxidant capacity and pigment contents. The results highlight the wide variability of lettuce's nutritional characteristics and emphasize the importance of traditional varieties as a source of agricultural biodiversity.

Tea as a Source of Biologically Active Compounds in the Human Diet

Joanna Klepacka et al.

Summary: The study found that the content of compounds in tea and its antioxidant activity are largely determined by the origin of tea leaves and the processing method. Green tea was the best source of phenolic compounds and magnesium, with the highest antioxidant activity. Consuming green tea daily can provide health-promoting polyphenols significantly exceeding the recommended dose.
