Purple cabbages stacked at a farmers’ market
Red cabbage may be two superfoods in one. It has all the cancer-fighting indole-carbinol and isothiocyanates of green cabbage, but it also has an incredible 470% more antioxidants thanks to its red coloring. Red #cabbage gets it color from the same compounds—anthocyanins—that make blueberries blue, and it has 29% more! Besides being powerful #antioxidants, anthocyanins are also potent cancer fighters. Recent meta-analyses have shown that people eating diets rich in anthocyanin had 22% lower risk of colorectal #cancer and significantly lower risk of death by heart disease. So the next time you’re at the grocery store, why not opt for red cabbage rather than green?
