About A small handful of spinach

A small handful of spinach packs a powerful nutritional punch in just a few leaves. Native to Persia, spinach is a versatile leafy green found in countless cuisines, from Italian pastas and Indian curries to American salads. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, calcium, and folate, spinach supports healthy vision, bone strength, and immune function. With its low-calorie count and high fiber content, it’s ideal for weight management and digestion. Spinach also contains antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which are essential for eye health. However, individuals prone to kidney stones should consume it in moderation due to its natural oxalate content. Whether enjoyed fresh, sautéed, or blended into smoothies, a small handful of spinach offers a simple, nutrient-dense boost to your daily diet.
