Medically speaking, more phytic acid and oxalic acid will affect the absorption of calcium and iron, while infants and young children have a higher demand for calcium and iron. Therefore, when making green leafy vegetables for children, it is recommended to blanch them to reduce the content of phytic acid and oxalic acid.
