CABBAGE RED

Red cabbage is a variety of cabbage characterized by its vibrant purple to red-colored leaves. This cruciferous vegetable is often used for its striking color and slightly peppery flavor. While similar in shape to green cabbage, red cabbage has a slightly more robust flavor and offers a range of culinary and nutritional benefits.

Red cabbage is an excellent source of vitamin C, which is essential for immune function, skin health, and wound healing. It also contains significant amounts of vitamin K, which plays a key role in blood clotting and bone health. The vibrant color of red cabbage comes from anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that have anti-inflammatory properties and may help protect against oxidative stress, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers. Red cabbage is high in dietary fiber, which supports digestive health, helps regulate blood sugar levels, and contributes to heart health by lowering cholesterol.
