Cabbage has long held a beloved spot in our kitchens—simple to cook, easy on the wallet, and full of nutritional value. But behind its crunchy green layers lies a lesser-known fact: for some individuals, cabbage isn’t always the healthiest choice.
So, who should be cautious? And how can such a widely enjoyed vegetable become a potential concern? Let’s unpack the answers—you may be surprised.
Why Is Cabbage So Widely Used?
Cabbage is to home cooking what the baguette is to bakeries: a daily go-to. Rich in vitamins A, B, C, E, and even P, it supports everything from vascular health and nervous system function to metabolic balance. And with its low calorie count, cabbage is a favorite among those looking to maintain a healthy weight while still enjoying satisfying meals.
Cabbage dishes, particularly warm and hearty soups, are especially popular in colder months. Still, even this reliable kitchen companion has its limitations.
