About Cabbage cooked

Cabbage, a cruciferous vegetable, has been cultivated for thousands of years, originating from Europe but now featured in cuisines worldwide. Whether boiled, steamed, sautéed, or stir-fried, cooked cabbage offers a more tender and milder taste compared to its raw form. It is low in calories with approximately 25 calories per cup (150g, cooked), yet rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, and small amounts of folate and potassium. Cooking may slightly reduce its vitamin C content, but it remains a nutritious addition to balanced meals.

Health Benefits

• Supports immune health due to its vitamin C content (about 20mg per 1 cup cooked).
• Promotes bone health with vitamin K (approximately 80% of the daily requirement per cup).
• Encourages digestive health due to its fiber content (about 2g per serving).
• Contains antioxidants such as polyphenols that help reduce inflammation.
• May help maintain healthy blood pressure owing to its potassium content (150mg per cup).
