Popeye loved it. While spinach might not make you stronger, studies show it may help prevent cancer.
The secret may be in the chlorophyll — the stuff that makes spinach green. Doctors say chlorophyll seems to bind to dangerous foods and keep us from absorbing them.

Other studies show that steaming or boiling spinach may actually increase the chlorophyll that reaches your body. Spinach also contains vitamins and antioxidants believed to prevent cancer.

The American Cancer Society recommends three to five servings of leafy greens a day. Raw, steamed or cooked, spinach can be a tasty part of your menu and a healthy helping of cancer prevention.
