Dear Nadia, 

No, you need to take retention factors into account although it is a
fairly simple simple mass balance calculation (using an engineering
term). You need to be careful with sensitive vitamins like vitamin C,
which deteriorate if you for example cut the lettuce in the salad. 

Best regards,
