About Raw spinach leaves

Raw spinach leaves are a nutrient-dense leafy green commonly used in salads, smoothies, and various dishes worldwide. Native to Persia, spinach gained popularity in Mediterranean, Asian, and Western cuisines for its versatility and mild flavor. Packed with essential vitamins and minerals, raw spinach is an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, and folate, as well as iron, calcium, and magnesium. It is rich in antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health, while its fiber content aids digestion. Low in calories and carbohydrates, spinach is a great choice for weight management and heart health. However, it also contains oxalates, which can inhibit calcium absorption and may contribute to kidney stones in susceptible individuals. Despite this, its wide-ranging health benefits make spinach a powerhouse addition to a balanced diet.
