Spinach overdose?

Is it possible to overdose on spinach? My body was crying out for nutrients earlier this week so I started eating spinach. I don’t know what I was doing to it, really. I heated oil in a pan. I put in some garlic. Then I put a huge bunch of spinach in the pan and the huge bunch turned into a teeny bunch. I don’t think that was sauteeing because there wasn’t a lot of sautee-style noise involved. Wilting? I guess I wilted it. Anyway, I went through two bags of spinach in about 1.5 days because the stuff kept shrinking. And it tasted good. Then I read the package and figured I got about 5000% of my daily vitamin A and C doses.

The day after the spinach binge ended I woke up feeling very groggy. I didn’t feel right until noon, and then everything was cool. Well, except for the green tint to my skin.
