Apart from it's uses as a food product, Spinach has been used for years to help relieve anemic problems. Its high iron content is well known, but its chlorophyll content is, perhaps, even more effective in raising the hemoglobin by building red blood cells. The high histidine, beta-carotene and content in Spinach (and other leafy green vegetables, i.e., cabbage, parsley, mustard greens and broccoli) are thought to build our immune system and ward off infection and foreign invaders.
