Cancer seems to run in my family and I've read that the cabbage family is good against cancer. So, I've decided to try to eat more cabbage.
I think it was @charry that first mentioned "Bubble and Squeak", so I found a recipe and made it and loved it. I also found a soup with cabbage and made it yesterday and loved it so much I ate TWO big bowls of it. Give us your favorite cabbage dish and with link, if possible. I am a vegetarian but you are welcome to post cabbage meat recipes for other SF members that are carnivores, no problem.
On the other hand, opinions about the cabbage family seems to be contradictory and confusing = Your opinions??
Scientists at the Institute of Food Research (IFR) in the UK found that natural chemicals released by brassica vegetables such as cabbage or broccoli can 'sabotage' the uncontrolled cell division of colon cancer cells, acting in much the same way as many anti-cancer drugs
Another potential cancer-fighting compound found in cabbage is sulforaphane. Research over the past 30 years has consistently shown that consuming cruciferous vegetables is associated with a lower risk of cancer.
Unfortunately, these anti-carcinogens tend to be found in foods that also contain carcinogens - well-known killers such as broccoli, onions, strawberries and cabbage. Even while these vegetables are preventing you from getting cancer, they are giving you cancer.
Cabbage is especially high in vitamin C, a potent antioxidant that may protect against heart disease, certain cancers and vision loss
