Cabbage has been used in medicine for centuries, and its healing properties are unrivaled. Cabbage is so rich in antioxidants and minerals that it should be consumed daily just for that reason. It contains large amounts of vitamins C and U (the latter is used as a naturopathic supplement for treating various health issues). Cabbage is particularly recommended for people with anemia or low blood count because it is a natural antiseptic, which helps replenish vital minerals and vitamins in the body.

Cabbage has been proven to heal many minor illnesses, including hangovers, alleviate chronic conditions, coughs, and even prevent ear inflammation. It is a mild diuretic, acting as a natural laxative and a very effective body cleanser. It heals gastric ulcers and, due to its high sulfur, chlorine, and iodine content, effectively removes mucus from the digestive tract.

Cabbage has also been proven to be an extremely effective remedy in preventing the formation of cancer cells and blocking metastasis. The most cases of recovery with cabbage have been identified in breast, colon, liver, lung, and ovarian cancers, and this healing power is attributed to the substance sulforaphane found in cabbage, which protects cells from the invasion of carcinogens.

Cabbage has another very special and beneficial property. It inhibits sugar conversion, which many take advantage of in weight loss diets.

How to prepare cabbage juice?

You can use a juicer or a blender. It is important to soak cabbage leaves in warm water mixed with a little apple cider vinegar for half an hour. The vinegar will not only destroy harmful bacteria on the leaves (even if the production is organic, air, water, and soil can be contaminated with pesticides), it will also speed up digestion in your stomach and boost metabolic processes. Only then will the cleansing properties of cabbage come to the fore.
