Baby spinach is the young leaves of the spinach plant. The figures here describe baby spinach boiled in unsalted water and are calculated from raw spinach data, allowing for weight loss during cooking. It provides vitamins and minerals, alongside some protein and fibre. Per 100g, it contains 3.2g protein, 135µg folate, 22mg vitamin C and 950mg potassium.
Folate supports normal blood cell formation, while vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Boiling without added salt keeps the salt content low, although sauces or seasonings can add salt and fat. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
