Why add lettuce powder to my smoothie?

One tablespoon provides about 90 mg natural nitrate—similar to a shot of beet juice—but with only 9 calories. In studies, 300 mg nitrate (3–4 servings) taken two hours before cycling let riders go 8 % longer before tiring. You also get a big hit of folate, useful for cell repair and healthy pregnancy. Verdict: solid endurance benefit.

Claim strength: High

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple human studies; Moderate = some human trials; Emerging = early lab data.

Is lettuce powder good for skin?

Folate helps cells regenerate, and the powder’s chlorophyll may reduce skin redness. Early trials show chlorophyll drinks lowered acne lesion count 23 % in eight weeks.

Claim strength: Emerging

What does it taste like?

Mild, grassy and a little sweet—far gentler than spinach or kale powders—so it blends into juices without overpowering fruit flavours.

Claim strength: Moderate

Does drying kill the vitamins?

Air-drying below 60 °C keeps 80 % vitamin K and 70 % folate, far better than pan-frying fresh leaves.

Claim strength: Moderate

Is it Keto-friendly?

Yes. Six grams add only 1 g net carbs and almost no sugar.

Claim strength: High

Any cautions with blood-thinner meds?

Each 6 g serving has ~100 µg vitamin K; people on warfarin should keep intake consistent and talk to their doctor.
