Healthy Benefits
Broccoli is a star member of the cruciferous family which is believed to help protect against cancer. It's a super source of vitamin C, folate, vitamin B6, and fiber.

Cabbage is a nutrient-dense, low calorie, food that provides an excellent source of vitamin C, potassium, folic acid, B6, biotin, calcium, and a respectable amount of fiber. In addition, studies have shown that cabbage has anticancer benefits.
