About Spinach

Spinach is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. A single cup of raw spinach delivers over 100% of your daily vitamin K needs and 16% of your vitamin A — all for just 7 calories. It is also a good plant-based source of iron and folate. Cooking spinach actually increases the bioavailability of some nutrients.
