15 Meal Prep Secrets That Can Reap Some Serious Nutrition Benefits

Give spinach some heat

Cooked spinach is higher in iron, calcium, and magnesium than raw spinach. The reason? Heat helps to release these minerals from compounds they are bound to so your body can absorb them better.

Tip: Steam, microwave, or use other methods that use lower heat to heat your spinach and never submerge your spinach in water.
