Why Spinach Is Good For Us

I am sure you remember Popeye the sailor man who loved spinach and when he ate it, his arms became swollen with muscles? Well, your arms may not swell with muscles but it turns out that Popeye was right - spinach is considered one of the healthiest foods you can eat.

Not only is spinach low in fat and cholesterol, but take look at this list of nutrients that spinach is high in:

• niacin
• zinc
• protein
• fiber
• vitamins A, C, E and K
• thiamin
• vitamin B6
• folate (good for a healthy cardiovascular system)
• calcium
• iron
• magnesium (helps lower blood pressure)
• phosphorus

What a list!

So, all you Popeye fans, eat your spinach!
