What is this food?
AI-assisted Green cabbage (cabbage, green). It’s a leafy, crunchy vegetable commonly used in viands, soups, and stir-fries.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Green cabbage is low in calories (about 31 kcal per 100 g) and provides dietary fiber (2.5 g) that helps you feel full and supports healthy digestion. It also has some sugar (3.4 g) naturally found in vegetables, and very low fat (0.1 g) with low sodium (12 mg), which makes it a good choice for everyday meals. The fiber can help balance your overall eating pattern—especially when you pair it with rice and protein.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted For your 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks a day, use cabbage as a side or add-on to increase volume and fiber without adding many calories. Try these practical tips: Fill half of your plate with vegetables like cabbage, then add rice and a protein (fish, chicken, tofu, or eggs). Cook with less oil: stir-fry with 1–2 teaspoons oil or sauté with a bit of water. If you’re making soup or nilaga, add cabbage near the end so it stays crisp-tender. Watch salty sauces (soy sauce, bagoong, patis) since they can raise sodium quickly—use them lightly.
