- Where Do Good Diets Come From?
Ah - The Cabbage Patch!
Look what's hatching in the Cabbage
Patch - and their heads appear to
be all different colors of the rainbow.
Over here, we see the common green
cabbage - and over there, purple
cabbage, and yes, over there appears
to be some lime-green Chinese cabbage.
Beautiful,
virtually fat-free and so low in
calories that we could just about
enjoy the entire cabbage patch without
blowing our diets. But of course,
we don't want to do that. We wouldn't
want the other members of the Cabbage Family to
get jealous, now would we? All work favorably
in the diet to promote weight loss including brussel sprouts, cauliflower, and broccoli – The Broom of the Gut
(author's term).
Another diet perk? Cabbage helps combat
ageing by boosting the body's defenses against certain types of cancer.
Diet-Wise
Uses for Cabbage:
Wrap around extra-lean
beef to make cabbage rolls, toss
shredded cabbage into soup for a
tasty brew, and for a dynamite slaw
add a bit of light Miracle Whip,
golden raisins, celery salt and
Splenda to shredded cabbage.
