Cabbage belongs to the powerful family of the Cruciferous vegetables like kale and broccoli. Loaded with all kinds of health benefits, cabbage – raw or cooked – has a significant impact on our lives.
Wish to improve on your daily diet and healthy living habits – Eat Cabbage!
You probably already know that cabbage is full of Vitamin C – 1/2 cup has 47 of the daily requirements!
Oh, I love that with the same amount, we could easily load up in Vitamin K (102% of daily intake), Manganese (8%), Folate (6%), Vitamin B6, Calcium and Thiamin. And there are other phytonutrients that are beautifully integrated into the structure of this cruciferous to bring us the benefits of health and well-being Naturally.
Many studies suggest that increased vegetable consumption decreases the risk of obeisty, diabetes, heart disease and overall mortality. And with frequent veggies recipes on your plate, you’d definitely see a healthier skin complexion, increased energy (veggies with their fiber content get rid of toxins), and overall lower weight – all are desired and highly sought after.
Start implementing easy and affordable steps daily – eat your Cruciferous as part of a daily diet.
