Which one is healthier: red or green cabbage?
Red cabbage vs. Green cabbage:
Benefits of red cabbage:
• 10 times more vitamin A than green cabbage
• More Vitamin C than green cabbage (sauerkraut has about 10 times more vitamin C than unfermented cabbage)
• 2 times more iron than green cabbage
• Anthocyanins (ant-cancer, anti-inflammatory, reduces free radical damage)
Benefits of green cabbage:
• More vitamin A than red cabbage
Both green cabbage and red cabbage contain:
• Phytonutrients
• Sinigrin—sulfur (anti-cancer)
• Polyphenols
• Flavonoids
• DIM
One of the biggest health benefits of cabbage (both types) is for:
• Ulcers and gastritis (juice of the cabbage, sauerkraut, coleslaw)
More cabbage benefits:
• Cabbage is good for the blood sugars
• Cabbage can help balance estrogen dominance
Which type of cabbage is healthier? Both red cabbage and green cabbage are healthy. Red cabbage has a little bit more nutrients. I actually recommend consuming both types of cabbage.
