As I was googling my most recent query today, I realized, maybe others wonder some of the same things I do. So I've decided to start sharing the results for the things I'm curious enough about to research.
Here's today's:
Is it safe to east spinach every day?
The answer is YES - and some even go as far to say that you should eat it everyday.
Benefits as detailed by livestrong, blog My Super Charged Life, and Men's Health:
Spinach is a rich source of plant-based omega-3s and folate that reduces the risk of heart disease, stroke and osteoporosis. My Super Charged Life
There is also evidence that eating spinach on a consistent basis can reduce brain damage as a result of natural aging. There are no negative effects of eating spinach every day. livestrong
Spinach is packed with lutein, a compound that fights macular degeneration. The folate in spinach also increases blood flow to the nether regions, helping to protect you against age-related sexual issues. Men's Health
The only drawback I could find? "If you're eating spinach at the expense of other healthy foods, you could be missing out on valuable nutrients." livestrong
So that's it! According to these sources, you can eat spinach every day if you want - just make sure you're still including a variety of other healthy foods.
