Cabbage is one of those healthy foods that people tend to avoid, but it really is a great alternative to lettuce and so good for you. My favorite type is Napa cabbage, which tastes slightly sweeter than other cabbages. Not only does it have a wonderful crunch, but it also has some seriously healthy attributes. Cabbage is great for detoxifying your liver and studies have shown that it can help prevent prostate , colon, and lung cancers. This is probably due to the fact

that it is loaded with phytonutrients , which work to clear free radicals and toxins, including potential carcinogens from our systems. Not only that, but it is high in vitamin C as well as vitamin K, not to mention fiber. I like to whip up a Napa cabbage is in a simple salad, to pair with hearty, Winter dinners because the salad is so light and crisp. Check out the recipe.
