    4 Cups a day is OK. You CAN get too much though. Spinach is high in iron, and it can cause problems. Why do you eat so of this one vegi much when there are other yummy things out there as well? Expand your diet!

    Well I have been on a diet for about 2 weeks and it just seemed like spinach was the way to go in my salad. I am thinking though I may be getting to much, so I am gonna start switching it up. Thanks for your thoughts, I am gonna keep that in mind!!!!

    yep there are lots of greens you can use in salads. browse your produce section and find some other items to mix with your spinach.

    I love my spinach mixed with romaine. . and really anything.

    When I'm in a real hurry for work. . I'll rinse a can of spinch and mix in some chick peas !!! YUM !! A little garlic salt. Meal in a minute. . . if you do a full can of each. . . . it makes two meals.

    But I'm with the rest of them. . .mix that spinach up !!

    I really love Spinich. If you are worried about getting to much iron you can always give blood. Giving blood is the best way to flush out extra iron
