8. Red Cabbage
Who would have thought that something so humble like red cabbage is so powerful? Red cabbage is rich in minerals and vitamins, including vitamins A, K, and C. Besides, it’s an excellent source of antioxidants, too. A FRAP analysis discovered that approximately 100 grams of red cabbage have 2.2 mmol of antioxidants.
Ahh, and red cabbage contains the same type of antioxidants as raspberries and strawberries, namely anthocyanins. The difference between them is the fact that by stir-frying or boiling red cabbage, you can boost the antioxidant content.
On the contrary, steaming could reduce its antioxidant profile by as much as 35 percent, and you don’t want that.
