What Are the Health Benefits of Spinach?
Spinach is considered extremely healthy, and is linked to tons of major health benefits. It contains nitric acid, which protects the heart from various diseases from poor blood vessel health. Spinach can decrease inflammation in the body. Excessive inflammation without intervention can lead to many chronic illnesses.
