Surprisingly, this leafy green is not often talked about when recommending healthy foods that cure disease.

Yet, it’s one of the most powerful foods on earth. Over 12 types of antioxidants and loads of potassium are only two of many reasons repeated studies have proven it lowers blood pressure.

Not just that, it’s one of few foods that reliable studies have revealed to prevent or reverse several types of cancer. That includes stomach, colon, breast, prostate and several other types of cancer.

If that wasn’t enough, it also regulates blood sugar levels (fantastic for those suffering type 2 diabetes), essential for the digestive system, strengthens bones and makes your hair and skin look young and beautiful.

But it’s a little tricky how to use it!

No wonder spinach was picked as the veggie of choice for cartoon character Popeye. Loaded with iron, it makes you strong and powerful.

But unlike iron from meat, your body can very easily manage this type of iron and get rid of any excess. Therefore, it poses no risk of spiking blood pressure. To the contrary; repeated studies have proven that spinach lowers blood pressure.

Just one serving also provides enough vitamin K and A for the day. Other treasures spinach includes are magnesium, copper, calcium, zinc, Omega 3 fats, and vitamins B, E and C.

The real deal, however, is the dozens of different antioxidants that help fight several types of cancer, as well as type 2 diabetes and arthritis.

You can, of course, enjoy raw spinach in salads. But it’s one of the few veggies that may be even more powerful cooked.

You see, spinach has a pretty high acid level. When cooked, the acid is removed and what’s left is a sweeter tasting pure power bomb.

How to prepare cooked spinach:

Fill up a big pot with water and bring to boil on high heat. Put a pack of raw spinach into the boiling water and boil uncovered for one minute. Drain the water and press lightly on the spinach to get as much water out as possible.

It’s ready. You can enjoy the spinach like this or add it to many other recipes.

Note that the water left is very acidic and therefore should be discarded and not used for anything.
