Spinach
has a high nutritional value and is extremely rich in antioxidants, especially
when fresh, steamed, or quickly boiled. It is a rich source of vitamin
A (and especially high in lutein), vitamin C, vitamin
E, vitamin K, magnesium, manganese, iron, vitamin B2, calcium,
potassium, vitamin B6, folicacid, copper, protein, phosphorus, zinc, niacin, selenium and omega-3
fatty acids. Recently, opioid peptides called rubiscolins have
also been found in spinach.
