In fact, it is rich in nutrients that strengthen bones such as calcium, vitamin K, magnesium, zinc, copper, and phosphorus, helping to prevent osteoporosis. It contains about 66 mg of calcium per 100 g of spinach and 389.82 μg of vitamin K, which plays an important role in the absorption of calcium and bone formation and strengthening.
It is also rich in iron and folic acid, which is effective in preventing hematopoietic function and anemia. It contains 2.49mg of iron and 170μg of folic acid per 100g, which helps to produce red blood cells. Along with this, abundant vitamin C helps the absorption of iron.
However, spinach is known to have a risk of kidney stones when overdosed due to high levels of oxalic acid, but when boiled, oxalic acid dissolves in water and is reduced by more than half, so blanching it and eating it as herbs can reduce the intake of oxalic acid.
