Eating salad?

Question

Is eating salad good for the skin because of the vitamin a in it and can I be getting to much vitmain a since I talk a multivitmain that has vitamin a also in it. My doctor recommended I eat a sald a day.

Answer 1

Make sure the lettuce is dark green. The light "iceberg" has very few vitamins in it. I like romaine. Be careful of the dressing, it adds so much fat.

Answer 2

Your doctor has given a good advice. If needed, reduce your multivitamin tablet dosage (you can take it on alternative days). Salad has minerals, vitamins and fiber, roughage etc.
