It’s pretty, it’s good for you and it tastes good cooked or raw. Yes good ole spinach. It is a super food rich in nutrients. It contains antioxidants which aid in fighting cancer along with flavonoids and other disease fighting agents which reduce inflammation in the body. It is good for slowing down the aging process by keeping the brain young. Spinach is rich in vitamin C and A and is a great source of iron. The nutrients in it act on almost every body system in a positive way. It is easy to get because it is abundant but it also carries some of the highest levels of pesticides so it is best to buy organic spinach.

Have a spinach salad once in awhile or sauteed spinach with a piece of chicken or fish. Include it in your lasagna recipes or throw it in with a little pasta to stretch a meal a little and enjoy it under your favorite red sauce. You’ll be strong to the finish if you “eats” your spinach.
