-Organic Spinach.
(seek Organic since it’s a top offender on the Dirty Dozen).
-Ideally, purchase fresh Spinach (that is vibrant deep green color and not wilted),
but it can also be found frozen or canned.
-Anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, anti-cancer, and more!
-Several flavonoids in Spinach act as antioxidants to keep cholesterol from oxidizing and protect your body from free radicals
(particularly in the colon).
-Mix up the nutrient bioavailability by sometimes using Raw Spinach in salads or Shakes,
and sometimes steaming, sautéeing, or adding to soups.
-In order to retain the rich iron content of Spinach, add a Vitamin C medium (such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar)
when eating raw or while lightly cooking.
-Don’t forget you need healthy fats (like my Salad Dressing), Avocado, or Nuts & Seeds
in order to absorb all the valuable nutrients Spinach has to offer!
-It can be stored in an air-tight bag in the fridge
and it is best to wash Spinach right before using.
