Just Like Popeye

Eating a can of spinach may not give you superhuman strength, but it could

help keep your colon healthy.

A recent study suggests that carotenoid-rich leafy greens such as spinach

may have a protective effect against colon cancer. Spinach is especially

rich in lutein, a carotenoid that appears to be responsible for the

cancer-inhibiting effect.

RealAge Benefit: Eating a diverse diet that includes 5 servings of

vegetables per day can make your RealAge as much as 4 years younger.
