No matter how you prepare it, spinach does a body good. One cup of spinach (cooked, boiled, drained) has a measly 41 calories, yet provides 987% of the DRI for Vitamin K! It also has 66% the DRI for folate and 49% the DRI for magnesium, not to mention 34% the DRI for Vitamin B6, 23% the DRI for Vitamin C, and 17% the DRI for fiber.
Vitamin K is essential for bone health and blood clotting. Research also shows it may decrease inflammation (helpful for arthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes).
