are contributing to health state of individuals, mounting evidence suggests the
biomolecular contents of foods vary in line with the nutritional milieu. Even
when it is hard to distinguish the causal factors of this variation, various
concentrations of flavonoids or polyphenols in lettuce contribute to preventive
strategies of several health conditions. The aim of this study is to
investigate flavonoids and polyphenol contents of lettuce grown in katsina state,
Nigeria and their potential beneficial role in immunocompetence of consumers.</span>
