◆ Cabbage, one of the world’s top three longevity foods
Cabbage, with its round shape and light green color, is a food with a long history that has been enjoyed since the ancient Greek and Roman times. Thanks to its common but diverse efficacy, it was also nicknamed the ‘poor people’s doctor.’ Along with yogurt and olives, it is one of the ‘world’s top three longevity foods’ selected by Time Magazine. Greek philosopher Pythagoras said, ‘Cabbage is a vegetable that brightens and energizes humans and calms the mind.’
◆ Gastrointestinal disease treatment effect that soothes sore stomach
Dr. Garnet Cheney of Stanhotte University School of Medicine in the United States announced experimental results showing that ‘fresh cabbage is a natural anti-ulcer food.’ When a drop of cabbage juice was given to an experimental animal with a stomach ulcer, the disease was completely cured. Through this experiment, the effectiveness of cabbage in treating gastrointestinal diseases became widely known, and many people still consume cabbage juice to soothe their sore stomach.

◆ Anti-ulcer vitamin U protects the gastric mucosa
Cabbage is rich in vitamin U, an anti-ulcer vitamin. Vitamin K and protein combine with vitamin U to increase the regenerative capacity of the stomach mucosa. For Koreans who often suffer from heartburn and gastrointestinal diseases, there is no ingredient better than cabbage. If you want to have a comfortable day, it is a good idea to eat cabbage often in salads, juices, or steamed foods.
◆ Antioxidant polyphenols prevent cancer
Cabbage contains more than 90% water. Excluding moisture, it contains ingredients such as carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins C and D. In addition, it is rich in lysine, an essential amino acid, and calcium comparable to milk, so it is helpful for the development of growing children.
In particular, cabbage is known to be very effective in preventing cancer when consumed daily as it is rich in polyphenols that have antioxidant and anti-aging effects. Cabbage’s polyphenol content helps prevent breast cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, and lung cancer. It has excellent efficacy in suppressing Helicobacter pylori, which is known to be the cause of stomach cancer, and is effective in reducing stomach cancer.
◆ The hard core part is a treasure trove of fiber.
If you eat cabbage uncooked, you will feel its unique fishy taste. This is due to the strong alkalinity of cabbage, and eating it with sour lemons, oranges, apples, etc. can help eliminate odors. Additionally, the hard core part of cabbage is often discarded because it is difficult to eat and does not have a good texture, but the core part is a fibrous core. You can easily eat it by grinding it with other vegetables or steaming it.
