Nutritional values

You receive your daily requirement of three important ingredients 100 percent: iodine, vitamin C and provitamin A. With the latter our reproduction functions, our bones grow or heal and the skin and mucous membranes become strong defences against pathogens. In addition, a lot of it is consumed in very bright light and at twilight.

Would you like to save yourself the trouble of sorting, cleaning, washing and spinning fresh leaf spinach? Then reach for deep-frozen spinach and cook it according to the package instructions.
