This green is one of the richest in antioxidants of all the lettuce family members.
It has tons of Lutein which is a powerful phytonutrient that can reduce inflammation, protect the eyes and possibly even improve strength, balance and mental acuity.
Always steam or microwave spinach (or eat raw). Boiling spinach will release all those wonderful phytonutrients right into the water that will be dumped down your drain.
Not a fan of seeing spinach on your plate? Blend this very neutral tasting green into your morning smoothie – even a few leaves is a great start!
