Spinach
Can you name the mineral that has the ability to draw water into the intestines, therefore relieving constipation? No… Well, it’s magnesium, and luckily for you, spinach is abundant in this powerful mineral. In fact, most green leafy veggies are incredible sources of magnesium.
Chief Medical Director of SANESolution, Matt Olesiak, MD, says that studies also found that this leafy green contains decent amounts of sugar sulfoquinovose, an enzyme that promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut while limiting the growth of bad bacteria.
So, no matter what leafy green veggies you choose, try to eat them more often!
