Sauerkraut has been recommended for years for the same reason.

Very interesting. Sassy loves to eat cabbage leaves just to munch on. I guess I should make the soup & eat more cabbage.

I’ve heard cabbage soup is supposed to be good if you have ulcers.

I hate to be such a stickler, but our mortality rate is 100%. Always has been, always will be.

Although cancer is mainly hereditary

Has this been established?

In Singapore, a study found that in non-smokers, regular consumption of cruciferous vegetables reduced lung cancer risk by 30%. Meanwhile, a 69% drop in lung cancer risk was found with the smokers.

Remember that a reduction in "risk" of lung cancer is not the same as the reduction of rate of lung cancer. Besides, most lung cancers don't occur until after the age of 65.

Brussel sprouts have always been one of my favorite vegetables. This makes my day.

Mmmmmm, now I have cravings for some good Polish Bigos.

I love making it and we eat it quite often....I love cabbage, any way, any time....sour kraut, slaw, fried, boiled, chopped....and as many ways as there is to make it...like I said...any way...

If you take a blood thinner you are advised to avoid vitamin K sometimes. Does that apply to cabbage? (green leafy vegtables)

[Moltke]

Consuming half of a head of cabbage everyday or very large amounts of other cruciferous vegetables is what it would take for you to have the kind of health risk reduction that you are searching for.

That is a LOT of cabbage. No one would do that over an extended period of time.

I dearly love cabbage but even I couldn’t eat 1/2 head a day.

I invented Mexican Cole Slaw.

Peel and shred with food processor:
Red Cabbage
Red Onion
Garlic
Jalapeno pepper
Cilantro

Add mayo, mustard, or Ranch Dressing, some spices, lime juice.

Mine is kinda like eating picante sauce straight out of the bottle. Love that stuff.

If I went on a cabbage soup diet I would become airborne.

[DollyCali]

I love cabbage soup! I make it in my crock pot & have quite a few variations but all w/o meat
