I love using spinach instead of lettuce because you don’t have to rinse or cut it! Like…

In one cup of raw spinach there is 41.4mg of Omega-3 fatty acids & 7.8mg of Omega-6 fatty acids

Omega-3&6 fatty acids can help boost your immune system, decrease depression & help with some skin disorders.

It’s a good source of magnesium, vitamin A, potassium & fiber

Which fills you up & can even help you lose weight

If you still haven’t fallen madly in love with spinach yet…

You can get most of the same nutrients in fruit cocktail, but it’s not quite as easy to add to other foods & is higher in calories
