Spinach:
Spinach is just one example of the leafy green vegetables rich in calcium and magnesium. Half a cup of cooked spinach contains more calcium, magnesium and iron than half a cup of milk.
The calcium and magnesium in spinach work together to ensure efficient nerve transmissions.
Calcium strengthens bones, teeth and gums, while magnesium and vitamin K build healthy red blood cells, the iron in the spinach strengthens the blood and potassium regulates high blood pressure.
Leafy greens are particularly rinch in antioxidants too and therefore more important for strengthening the body's immune system.
The antioxidants in spinach are believed to reduce the risk of both heart disease and stroke and lower the risk of skin and stomach cancer.
Spinach is another energizing food, and is most effective in combating long term fatigue.
