What are the benefits of eating more spinach in life?

Spinach reminds me of the line in Song Dandan's sketch that "eyes are spinach in autumn". Eyes are not spinach in autumn, but spinach is one of the common vegetables on our table.

It is understood that spinach is also one of the vegetables with high nutritional value. The benefits of eating spinach often include the following three aspects.

1 can effectively relieve eye fatigue and protect eyesight.

Spinach contains carotene in its nutrients. If we often eat spinach, the carotene in spinach can be effectively absorbed by the human body and then converted into vitamin A. Vitamin A can effectively relieve people's eye fatigue, further protect our normal vision and make our eyes brighter and healthier.

Therefore, including my own family, many families make a plate of spinach for three meals a day, which can supplement some vitamins that our body needs. At the same time, spinach can also solve boredom well and increase appetite for eating! !

2. It can effectively regulate intestinal function and promote defecation.

Spinach contains a lot of crude fiber in its nutrients. Crude fiber in food can effectively promote intestinal peristalsis. Therefore, eating spinach often in life can promote food digestion, help people defecate smoothly and effectively solve the embarrassment of squatting.

If our own living conditions and living relief are relatively dry, or if we eat indigestible food, then eating spinach as a vegetable can also achieve an effective laxative effect. Like when I am at home, I cook a "mixed spinach" for my family, especially my children, every once in a while, which is very appetizing.

3. It can effectively promote muscle growth and increase human muscle strength.

Spinach contains three kinds of fatty acids and folic acid, which can be synthesized with our muscles to provide some energy. Folic acid can also speed up the blood circulation of the body. Folic acid is an element that we need to supplement to enhance the fitness effect. Spinach is rich in folic acid. Folic acid can not only help biceps brachii contraction, but also provide muscle growth with three fatty acids in spinach. It can also make muscles more sensitive to insulin, which is beneficial to increase the conversion of hungry carbohydrates in muscles to available strength, thus increasing muscle strength.

I still remember the cartoon Popeye I watched when I was a child. What impressed me most was that Popeye would become particularly strong after eating spinach. Of course, eating spinach is not as powerful as the characters in the animation, but eating spinach often is really effective in promoting muscle growth and increasing muscle strength.

In short, eating more spinach in life can not only enhance physical fitness, but also improve skin and help the body supplement vitamins. It's delicious. Remember to eat more! !
