I just found you by accident and loved it! I'm a chemist, nutrition geek and and this is one of the best videos I've watched recently! Congratulations!! You are amazing 😁
Thanks! This is the exact breakdown that I was needing. I’ve juiced both cabbages for the past 4 days. The horrible pain in my foot is no longer there. I’m so thankful.
Greetings from São Paulo, Brazil. I've been learned a lot with your videos. I have a RU-vid Brazilian channel. I'm organic and live a organic farm. I'm like you. I just don't give people healthy recipes I give the the nutritional values of every element. I love your channel. It's very informative and healthy. Wish you the best. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I've been following you for a couple of months now. The more I watch, the more I learn. You're the first one I've come across that does these types of analyses and comparisons. It's very helpful. Thanks for your efforts and sharing.
This video was absolutely amazing! Thank you for taking the time to go over all of this for us nutrition geeks! I will definitely be switching to red cabbage and try to incorporate more red/ purple veggies in my diet. 💜
I just seen this woman's video when I was searching for lettuce health habits. This woman is my hero, so beautiful inside and out. I'm 29 and dropped 30 lbs this year pursuing a healthy life style! Thank you for your content can't wait to watch more! God bless
Awesome info Thank You! I was just gifted a cabbage and told them I'd make some sour kraut but like you the detailed nutritional info is is huge for me. You saved me so much time from finding the info myself. Keep the vids coming as you are one a new fab for me. Blessings to you n yours.
I got into a rather heated discussion about cabbage with a relative in which we both make Chow-chow. This is very popular in the southeast where we are from. It's somewhat of a slaw or relish with cabbage being the host ingredient. I want to thank you for your breakdown of the two. I've been making my recipe with both red and green which apparently goes against my relatives traditions and for that I am treated like I kicked their dog. Great channel and I love your hat.
I love both , but I wanted to know them more in detail and that why I’m here. I guess I’m gonna eat more purple than green now thanks a lot for the nutritional value breakdown -much love
I like them both now in my Cole Slaw Dressing 1 /2 lemon squeezed Avocado oil Garlic salt Frozen baby peas A splash of Medium salsa Quite satisfying and you can eat till you are full. I use 1 or 2 red baby 2 inch tiny potatoes as the side dish. This makes a delicious Satisfying meal. It’s very healthy and helpful if you are on a tight budget. 😊
I too found you by accident already subscribed you are very knowledgeable and I love all the facts I am hands-down going to be eating red cabbage thank you so much
Oh my gosh, I can't believe I just found your channel.....Love all of this. I will be watching everything. I'm an old retired nurse, and this is what I love to watch. Going next to the fermented cabbage and other fermentations you do. I'm just starting this so I hope the instructions are simple to the point. Somehow I believe they will be.....Just from the picture on the fermented cabbage, are you doing the green and not the purple? I see most people are doing the green and wonder now with the value of the purple cabbage why they are not doing it. Thank-you!!......Sherry
Hi Sherry, Thank you for watching my videos! The reason why I personally (rarely) ferment purple is for cosmetic reasons. It ferments into a gray color and also stains my teeth grayish-blue due to the dye being pulled out of the cabbage into the brine. That's all, still plenty good to eat if you choose to ferment it!
@@CleanFoodLiving Well thank-you so much. What a wonderful teacher you are. I've had my fermentation kit for over a year or more now, but you are the only one that has given the most excellent demonstration and all the "why's". I don't know if you have written any books on fermentation, but if you did I would buy them all. You really have put a lot of work into your instructional video's and God Bless you for that. You are a diamond.
Thank you - I have just started fermenting in the last month , I am 7 days into a Red Cabbage ferment , interesting it has so many more benefits over the white which is good anyway , I have both a white and red in the fridge for my next batch
I was cooking red cabage, and wondered which one has higher nutritional benefits red or green? After watching your so much detailed video, I'm glad I chose red cabage to cook today. Thank you so much for your video.
What I would LOVE TO SEE is a similar video about the most nutritious common staple foods, like potatoes, broccoli, wheat, corn, eggs, peanuts, along those lines. What is the single most nutritious common vegetable?
Hi, new subscriber here! This is a great breakdown. It'd be good to understand what nutrition is lost in cooking cabbage as opposed to eating it raw or in fermented preparations.
Thank you soooo much for this valuable information. I'll keep my eyes on your channel for more useful, updated, reliable information. I'm glad that you like and are doing these kind of videos... we need to get educated in this enjoyable way. Gracias!
I have over the past 4 months been eating sauerkraut regularly but had no idea the red cabbage fared so much better than green. I plan to switch to red sauerkraut from now on while using green periodically as well. Thanks for this very informative video.!
This video showed up as I watch lot of nutritional videos. I knew purple cabbage has higher nutritional value than green ones but never knew to this detail. I'm now hooked to this channel.
I would like to say that you should be a lecturer at top notch medical university. Your presentation is above and beyond. Clear, concise and right to the point. What a bright mind. May Allah bless you. Love and respect from Sudan.
Love these vids. It'd be quite interesting to know how much all those values change after we ferment cabbage, but I guess there is no such info available. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on nutrition.
Thanks for the information. I just made a cleansing soup with red cabbage and other veggies. Most of the veggies, I don't care for but the soup is delicious!
Please do more of these on all categories of food: legumes, whole grains like oats and Ezekiel bread, nuts like pistachios, macadamia, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc. these are sooo helpful, thank you! Also do you know which grains are low in oxalates? ❤❤❤ you are amazing! 🤗
This is fascinating, thanks for sharing this. I am amazed at the differences, I guess it means that my red cabbage kraut should be a mixed cabbage kraut in future! 😊
Okay I made it to the end, great video thanks again. I do a cabbage, kale and beat root dish I eat as a side with pretty much every meal. Growing up my father owned a wholesale produce company so we always had an abundance of fresh produce. Red cabbage was a staple in our house and until I hit 40 years old I never weighed over 135 pounds. 4 kids later, very busy life style, a life of cluster headaches (unfortunately on steroids for that), I just lost track of my healthy diet. Result of all that made for a rapid weight gain and a year ago I topped off at 203 pounds. Last year now that all my kids are grown adults I realized I needed to focus on me some. I started a healthy diet again, focused on personal training and got down to 170 in 2 months but life had other plans and I lost track yet again. Now all that is behind me and after many years have a garden going, have my diet under control, and have lost 28 pounds since Feb. 1st. I have been fine tuning my diet for the last month and it's why I am here. Thanks yet again, and sorry for the long winded comment.
I just found your channel and this was the second video of yours that I watched. I loved the in depth breakdown. I didn't realize that there was such a difference! One thing I am thinking of, is that vitamin K is hard to come by and something I need in my diet. Yet I don't think it is enough to warrant buying the green over the red. THANKS, you have a new subscriber.
FANTASTIC! Question: if you HAD to choose - 1. You have red & green cabbage, which would you make sauerkraut with if you had to choose? 2. As above, which for Cold Press juicing. 3. Which for general fresh salad Remember you HAVE to choose only one for each 😁
1. I do green because the purple turns my teeth blue due to the purple coloring. So brushing teeth immediately after eating is necessity after purple... I'd rather not worry about teeth staining so I go green. 2. Green for juicing for personal preference. 3. Red for fresh raw salads. No teeth staining like with the fermented and juiced red cabbage!
Hi and thank you for this. I just ran across your video and I am a huge raw food convert and have gotten annoying to all of my friends and family so I'm very happy to have found you :). You say you read all of your comments so here are two comments I have for you. First comment (and I’m just being a smart ass here) ... in the amino acid profile you mention that purple cabbage won out in all categories, but in fact the one amino acid where green cabbage wins is proline according to your numbers. You can mop the floor with me when it comes to discussing nutritional profiles - it’s just a funny quirk I noticed when watching your entire video. Second comment is I’m wondering why you are growing mostly green cabbage instead of purple cabbage if the purple is the more nutritionally dense. Just curious! I tend to eat both at the same time as I never knew the nutritional differences until I watched your video and I wanted to cover all the bases just in case. You are awesome for what you do and how you live. I’d love you as a neighbour that is for sure. If you don’t respond to this that’s still cool. I’m just sending you an early wish for a great Christmas. ☃
Yes I do read my comments 😀 1. Yes I am aware. 2. I grow cabbage for 1 purpose, to ferment it into beloved sauerkraut.💙 My personal preference is green. 3. Thank you and bless you, merry Christmas!
This does mean that I will be growing purple cabbage as well as green cabbage in 2024. I eat a fair bit of cabbage all year around so this information is very useful. Thanks!!
Cabbage, my favourite veg. Always thought red was better for us, now you have nailed it! Thank you. New to your channel, and MORE than impressed. Peace be unto you.
Love your presentation style and info. Caught an error - for proline you have purple at 42.7 and green at 48.1 but you showed purple as higher. Thanks again for the clip.
I like knowing all the details, but as I get older (60) I just want the facts mam. :) There was a time I knew a lot of these facts, but seem to have lost it in the library that is my brain. So long story short I need a refresher course. Thanks for posting and sharing this info.
Fantastic information! Thanks very much :) I've been using a lot of purple Kale: Assuming there will be similar differences between that and its green equivalent...
A year later and just like Sandra below me,found you by chance and gotta say, you've my utmost respect and admiration, sharing your knowledge on how to ferment cabbage with chopped carrot and ginger, first video I saw, and you mention there this video about Cabbage Nutrition facts, so here I am and amazed that the Purple won 1st.place over the Green cabbage. I first learned how to ferment purple cabbage here on RU-vid from a British guy but am amazed as well by the fermented hummus(2nd.video watched) and this one which is AWESOME. 🤠Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise, 👍 subbed and greetings 👋from central Mexico.
Greetings, just sat down to breakfast and on my phone went to YT! Wow straight up there you are talking about cabbage. I have a tumour and want to treat it naturally. I am now joined to your very interesting channel and so happy to be here. Thank you so much for the information. God bless.❤️
As a fellow nutrition geek :) Anthocyanins, pronounced (An-thuh-sigh-uh-ninz), an-tho-sigh-uh-ninz is also acceptable. Thank you for a GREAT Video! You've earned a new sub!
I am a new fan of your videos. Yes, this was a very good video. My real takeaway from the video and especially the one on seeds is the importance of variety in one's diets. For example, one seed was higher in some categories while weaker in others.
Great video, you spend so much of your time creating these great videos. Where do you find all of this information. I would like to do it for some other vegetables and for avocados. TY!!!
Hi. Red cabbage did not have higher amino values completely across the board as green cabbage has higher proline based on you figures of 48.1 green cabbage vs 42.7 for red cabbage. Thanks for the best fermenting food content on RU-vid. Very clear presentation and great subject matter. A plus that you're so enthusiastic as well! I've been a keen homebrewer for years so am fascinated by all things fermented. Am enjoying seeing my wife's poor health, she has myalgia encephalomyelitis (ME), get noticeably better after I started making sauerkraut and giving to her. Intermittent fasting may be helping too.
You are the BEST! I have been enjoying my new Lacto-coleslaw habit! Q: I find mine is often not making enough liquid - could it be my cabbage is “less fresh”? Or do I need to add more salt? I use. I use a coffee filter, and then loosely cover each jar with a screw top after the third day or so… but the juice evaporates, and although it ferments, it is too dry.
The saying, "You are what you eat" should more accurately be, "You are what you eat, ate" For the results to be accurate both varieties of cabbage had to have been grown in the same soil, and under identical conditions. But yes, generally the brighter and/or darker coloured fruits/vegetables are nutritionally superior. I often make sauerkraut with a mix of green and purple (red) as I love the colour of the purple. I will try adding some ginger as you suggested! Nice videos......
