An apple a day keeps the Doctor away, goes the maxim.
To me , it is little spinach a day ,not only keeps the Doctor away, but keeps you hale and healthy.
Spinach has medicinal value.Dishes made of spinach are tasty and nutritious.There are different spinach ,coriander, mint, drumstick,amarnath or araikeerai,vallarai,vendhayam,pirndai,and goonkora,manathakali..
Juices of certian varieties, chutneys porial and kootus, masials and soup kindle the tasty buds.
These spinach are rich in iron , vitamins and stimulate th digestive system
They enhance the memory andsuppress the heat in the body.They cure mouth ulcers and diffuse the congestion due to cold. The eye sight is improved greatly by profuse use of spinach.Arthiritis and body pain is subsides after consuming moodakathan keerai, a rare variety of spinach.
The complexion gets toned up by taking ponnagani keerai. and thiruvatchi keerai sorts out the kidney problem.Keezhanalli keerai cures Jaundice,and sets right the liver.
Spinach grown in an organic settlement is a value added product.
