A widespread myth about spinach is that they are very rich in iron. In fact, it was a series of comics and cartoons, Popeye, to encourage consumption. In it, Popeye ate a can of spinach gave him supernatural strength.

In fact, the iron in spinach is not well absorbed because spinach has a lot of oxalic acid and this makes the iron insoluble. Anyway, even if they have low iron (chickpeas and lentils are more) and assimilate it wrong, spinach remains a highly desirable food.

Besides the above, it should be noted that this plant, yet it is rich in protein and can also prevent diseases such as anemia and others.
