2. Lettuce/Vegetables Salads

If you are looking for food that almost has no calories, then you have found some choices on this list, and one of them is also lettuce. When we use fresh leaves, we provide our bodies with the necessary dose of vitamin A. And we’ll also get beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, B-complex, folates, copper, iron, potassium, calcium, and manganese. Eating lettuce regularly can help you prevent many ugly “modern man” diseases, such as many types of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular problems, osteoporosis… I guess those strong gorillas are not that crazy for making lettuce their meal of choice.
