Baby spinach is one of the best sources of plant-based iron available, and the majority of its calories come from protein. Here are some of their possible health benefits:


DIABETES MANAGEMENT

Spinach contains an antioxidant known as alpha-lipoic acid, which has been shown to lower glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity, and prevent oxidative, stress-induced changes in patients with diabetes.


CANCER PREVENTION

Spinach contains chlorophyll. Several studies have shown chlorophyll to be effective at blocking the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic amines. These are generated when grilling foods at a high temperature. This can contribute to preventing the growth of cancer.

​

ASTHMA PREVENTION

A study of 433 children with asthma showed that the risks for developing asthma are lower in people who have a high intake of certain nutrients. One of these nutrients is beta-carotene. Spinach is an excellent source of beta-carotene.


LOWERING BLOOD PRESSURE

Due to its high potassium content, spinach is recommended for people with high blood pressure. Potassium can help reduce the effects of sodium in the body. A low potassium intake might be as potent a risk factor for developing high blood pressure as a high sodium intake.


BONE HEALTH

Low intakes of vitamin K have been associated with a higher risk of bone fracture. Adequate vitamin K consumption is important for good health, as it acts as a modifier of bone matrix proteins, improves calcium absorption, and may reduce the amount of calcium that leaves the body in urine. PROMOTES DIGESTIVE REGULARITY Spinach is high in fiber and water, both of which help to prevent constipation and promote a healthy digestive tract.

​

HEALTHY SKIN AND HAIR

Spinach has large quantities of vitamin A, which moderates the production of oil in the skin pores and hair follicles to moisturize the skin and hair. It is this oil that can build up to cause acne. Vitamin A is also necessary for the growth of all bodily tissues, including skin and hair. Spinach is high in vitamin C which is crucial for the building and maintenance of collagen, which provides structure to skin and hair. Iron deficiency is a common cause of hair loss, which may be prevented by an adequate intake of iron-rich foods, such as spinach.
