Spinach can be used to make all kinds of delicious food, and its edible nutritional value is also extremely high.
First of all, eating spinach in spring has three major benefits for the body:
1. Stabilize blood sugar
Spinach leaves contain an insulin-like substance, which is very similar to insulin in mammals. Therefore, diabetics (especially type 2 diabetics) may wish to eat spinach often to keep their blood sugar stable.
Promote digestion
Enzymes contained in spinach can promote the secretion of gastric juice and pancreas, and contribute to food digestion and nutrient absorption. In addition, the dietary fiber contained in spinach can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and accelerate stool discharge, which has a good effect on constipation and hemorrhoid bleeding.
protect eyes
Spinach contains carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in human body, which helps to maintain normal vision and the health of epithelial cells. The contents of protein, vitamin B2, iron, phosphorus and other inorganic salts in spinach are also higher than those in many vegetables, and these components have health care effects on eyes.
Second, spinach is good, but three bogeys, quickly understand:
1. spinach+cucumber
Cucumber contains enzymes that decompose vitamin C, while spinach is rich in vitamin C, so they should not be eaten together. Vitamin C in spinach will be destroyed by decomposing enzymes in cucumber.
2. Spinach+Tofu
Tofu contains magnesium chloride and calcium sulfate, and spinach contains oxalic acid. When two kinds of food meet, magnesium oxalate and calcium oxalate can be produced. These two kinds of white sediments not only affect the absorption of calcium by human body, but also easily lead to lithiasis.
3. Spinach+leek
When eating jiaozi, if spinach and leek are mixed together to make stuffing, eating spinach like this will cause diarrhea.
