Know nothing about spinach but as someone who was 20 st (280 lbs) 7 months ago (14 st now) I am of the view that obesity is caused largely by genetic factors combined with lifestyle. The genetic aspect is the low metabolic rate (fat-burn rate). If you are putting on more fat than you are burning then your weight will go up. I am pretty sure mine is really, really low and hence if I eat a bag of chips my weight can go up one stone as it did a few yrs ago.

There are certain chemicals such as nicotine that can remove stored fat which causes obesity and transport them through the blood vessels. The bad news is the veins gets choked and circulation decreases. Maybe spinach has some chemical agent that partly does this- i.e. removing stored fat, but also helps in kidney function so that these fats can be filtered from the blood stream and removed from the body.

To maintain a stable wieght, you have to satisfy the equation food in = activity out. At anytime you turn the equation into an inequality, and unbalance happens; either food in < activity out (wieght lose), or food in > activity out (wieght gain). The longer you maintance the 2nd ineuqality, the more wieght you gain. You start with extra few pounds, then you become obese. Genetics can play a role sometimes.

Gluttony is always suspect. Spinach to reduce? It only makes you strong at the finish a' la Popeye.

it is caused by the fats that accumulate in our body and spinach has content that absorb these fats.

if you replace some cupcakes with spinach every day. you will lose weight. there is no magic "content" that will make you lose weight.
