Gut Health Benefits:

Spinach is rich in chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for its deep green colour. Chlorophyll has been studied for its potential to support gut health by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria and helping to reduce intestinal inflammation. Halloumi contributes calcium which supports digestive enzyme function and bone health.
