Spinach, canned, drained

Canned, drained spinach is a leafy green vegetable preserved in a can, with the surrounding liquid removed. It provides vitamins and minerals, including 576µg of vitamin A (retinol equivalent), 14mg of vitamin C and 120mg of calcium per 100g.

Vitamin A supports normal vision and immune function, while vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Calcium contributes to the maintenance of bones and teeth. The salt content is 0.5g per 100g, which is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Salt levels can vary between canned products, so product labels may differ from these figures. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (Literature sources). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Vegetables, Herbs and Spices Supplement, 1991.
