CABBAGES
Cabbage is an edible plant from the Brassicaceae family. It is a biennial cruciferous plant whose leaves form a compact head or “ball.” In addition to its preventive aspect against certain cancers, cabbage is rich in vitamin B9, also known as folic acid. This vitamin, which is often deficient in the human body, plays an important role in the production of our genetic material (DNA and RNA). It also promotes the formation of red blood cells and contributes to the production of serotonin (an anti-stress neurotransmitter).
