Happy National Spinach Day!
Spinach is packed with iron, fiber and antioxidants, making it a powerhouse for energy, digestion and overall well-being. Whether tossed in a vibrant salad, warm soup, pasta or as a side dish, this leafy green is an easy way to nourish your body.
Here’s why it’s so good for you:
- Rich in Iron: Helps transport oxygen in the blood and supports energy levels.
- High in Fiber: Aids digestion and keeps you feeling full longer.
- Loaded with Antioxidants: Protects cells from damage and supports overall health.
- Packed with Vitamins: A great source of Vitamin A (for eye health), Vitamin C (boosts immunity) and Vitamin K (essential for bone health).
- Heart-Healthy: Contains nitrates that help lower blood pressure and support cardiovascular health.
- Supports Healthy Skin: The high levels of beta-carotene help maintain glowing skin.

I started out several years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
