Fresh cabbage is an
excellent source of natural antioxidant, vitamin C. Provides
36.6 mg or about 61% of RDA, more than that of in the oranges. Regular
consumption
of foods rich in vitamin C helps the body develop resistance against
infectious agents and scavenge harmful, pro-inflammatory free radicals.
It is also rich in essential vitamins such as
pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5), pyridoxine (vitamin B-6) and thiamin
(vitamin B-1). These vitamins are essential in the sense that our body
requires them from external sources to replenish.
