Of course spinach is good for you, remember Popeye?

Well, I don't recommend eating it through your pipe, or eating it out a can, for that matter. And I can't guarantee it will give you bulging muscles and superior strength.

Spinach does contain a powerful nutrient combination that makes it extremely healthy to eat. Only carrots and parsley are higher in beta carotene. Your body changes beta carotene into vitamin A as you need it. It is also a good source of 9 other vitamins which are, in most cases, bioavailable in spinach. Spinach is nature's number 1 source of Alpha Lipoic Acid, a potent antioxidant and cancer fighter. To put it lightly, if you eat your spinach you will be "strong to the finish."
