Oxalic acid is an 'anti-nutrient' - as it can bind to minerals in your body
The USDA does not report oxalic acid content for spinach. Oxalic acid is scored against values from peer-reviewed scientific studies.

Why this nutrient matters:

Oxalic acid is naturally found in a wide range of edible plants and can also be synthesized by your body. If your teeth have ever felt gritty after eating spinach, it is a result of oxalic acid reacting with calcium in your saliva! Too much oxalic acid may have negative side effects in humans as it can bind to minerals in your body, causing kidney stones and other health problems. Some populations of people require low oxalic acid diets.
