Experts Clarify Palak Paneer Myths: Iron-Calcium Interaction

Some people think palak paneer (spinach and cheese) is not good for you because the cheese might stop your body from using the iron in the spinach.

However, experts say this is not true when you eat them together as a meal.

They say that the amount of iron and calcium in palak paneer is not enough to cause problems.

Also, if you eat palak paneer with foods that have vitamin C, like a lemon, your body can use the iron better.

So, you can still enjoy your palak paneer!

It's good for you when eaten with other healthy foods.
