One of the foods I try to get in every day is spinach. Spinach has a lot of health benefits. Spinach is rich in cancer fighting nutrients flavonoid and carotenoid. The varieties of flavonoid present act as anti-cancer agents and antioxidants. The carotenoid nutrients help fight prostate cancer by eliminating cancerous cells and stopping the reproduction of cancerous cells.
Also, spinach contains high amounts of vitamin C and beta-carotene, which helps fight heart disease by reducing the amount of free radicals in the body. Vitamin C is water soluble and beta-carotene is fat soluble, so their anti-oxidant properties are sure to be absorbed throughout the body and helps lower cholesterol.
We're not done yet! Studies have shown that eating spinach regularly helps slow the effects of aging on the brain.
