Nutrition alert: Here’s what a 100-gram serving of palak contains

Do you remember your mom telling you to eat palak as a kid if you wanted to grow stronger? Well, she may have been partly right because it is, after all, a green vegetable but the only person to grow superhuman strength from palak is the fictional character, Popeye.

“While spinach is indeed a nutritious vegetable, it cannot provide immediate strength,” she said.
Having said that, spinach has still many benefits that can be derived by making it a part of our diet. Let us understand what they are.
