In one cup of shredded or cropped lettuce there contains 8 calories and 1% daily value of the calories from fat. Total fat is 0. 1g. Saturated fat is 0. 0g and polyunsaturated fat is 0. 0g. It has very low saturated fat in lettuce which can be taken regularly.

Lettuce doesn't have any calories from fat. It is mostly water, with a little bit of plant fiber, and a small amount of carbohydrates. It also has a small amount of vitamins.

Lettuce does not contain any fat calories. Lettuce is a very healthy option and actually has "negative calories". Which means you burn more calories chewing lettuce then you actually take in from lettuce.

Lettuce has no fat calories to speak of. Unfortunately, most lettuce also has little nutritional value unless you get a darker green kind. The danger lies in salad dressings, many of which are loaded with fat and calories. Don't try to lose weight too fast, that isn't healthy!
