Spinach, given the scientific name of Spinacia oleracea, belongs to the family Amaranthaceae. These aromatic greens that we commonly use as vegetables come from a flowering plant that originated from ancient Persia. In China, the plant is still known as the Persian green.
Spinach was later found to be naturally available in central and western Asia. As its high nutritious values were discovered, the leafy vegetable soon became a food staple all over the world. Spinach is an annual plant and is sown around winters. By the time the summers approach Spinach bolts in growth and stand about one meter tall. In addition to being used as a food source, spinach has also been used in herbal medicine for the prevention of various diseases and improve overall health.
