Today we're going to talk about red and green cabbage differences. I'm also going to tell you which type of cabbage is healthier. 


Red cabbage vs. Green cabbage: 


Benefits of red cabbage:

 • 10 times more vitamin A than green cabbage 

 • More Vitamin C than green cabbage (sauerkraut has about 10 times more vitamin C than unfermented cabbage)

 • 2 times more iron than green cabbage 

 • Anthocyanins (ant-cancer, anti-inflammatory, reduces free radical damage)


Benefits of green cabbage:

 • More vitamin A than red cabbage 


Both green cabbage and red cabbage contain:

 • Phytonutrients 

 • Sinigrin—sulfur (anti-cancer)

 • Polyphenols 

 • Flavonoids 

 • DIM 


One of the biggest health benefits of cabbage (both types) is for:

 • Ulcers and gastritis (juice of the cabbage, sauerkraut, coleslaw)


More cabbage benefits:

 • Cabbage is good for the blood sugars 

 • Cabbage can help balance estrogen dominance 


Which type of cabbage is healthier?

Both red cabbage and green cabbage are healthy. Red cabbage has a little bit more nutrients. I actually recommend consuming both types of cabbage.
