Correct Answer: Oxalic acid


Solution : The correct option is Oxalic acid .

Spinach contains oxalic acid , which is a naturally occurring compound in various plants. Oxalic acid can form crystals in the body, leading to the development of kidney stones in susceptible individuals. However, the overall concentration of oxalic acid in spinach is not exceptionally high, and it is generally considered safe in moderation.
