11. Spinach
Of course, Popeye’s favorite snack simply couldn’t miss from this list. Spinach is indeed one of the most nutritious veggies on earth. It’s loaded with many vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The best part for those who are trying to lose weight? Spinach is super low in calories (and it’s versatile, too).
From eating spinach regularly, you’ll get two powerful antioxidants, lutein and zeaxanthin. Both of them have been linked to improved eyesight. And it’s not just that; the antioxidants found in spinach can also lower the chances of developing certain types of cancers, as well as inflammation.
So Popeye was a wise man, at least when it comes to his dietary options.
