Spinach is incredibly low in calories. One cup (about 30 g) of raw spinach contains only about 7 calories, making it a guilt-free addition to meals and snacks.

That said, incorporating vitamin C-rich foods with spinach can enhance iron absorption, so feel free to get a little creative in the kitchen.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, you can start with cleaned, packaged spinach and brighten it up by squeezing lemon or lime juice on top after it&#8217;s cooked. Or combine baby spinach with fresh strawberries in salads, or mix roasted Brussels sprouts with cooked spinach for a hearty side dish. (What&#8217;s that? You didn&#8217;t know that one serving of Brussels sprouts has 124% of the Daily Recommended Value of vitamin C?

This handy portion size gives you a practical way to incorporate spinach into your daily meals without overwhelming your plate. In fact, cooked spinach is a great side dish to delicate fish entr\u00e9es or mixed into soups like minestrone or potato-spinach soup.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4b62187 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4b62187\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68c43c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"68c43c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Does cooked spinach lose nutrition?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f66e28f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f66e28f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2eb5b8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2eb5b8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cooking spinach can alter its nutritional profile just a bit, mainly affecting the vitamin C content. However, cooking also breaks down oxalic acid, which can inhibit the absorption of certain nutrients like calcium and iron. Overall, lightly cooking spinach or enjoying it raw both offer similar health benefits, so don&#8217;t let it stop you either way. Both ways are great!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a60208c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a60208c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-afefe78 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"afefe78\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How much spinach can you have in a day?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2bb6be8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2bb6be8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-916fa7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"916fa7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, that&#8217;s the spirit. While individual needs vary, eating at least one to two cups of spinach per day can provide some substantial health benefits. Whether raw in salads or cooked in your favourite dishes, try to fit it into your diet as much as possible so you can reap its nutritional rewards.
