Cabbage is considered to be an effective home remedy for obesity.
Recent research has
discovered in this vegetable a valuable content called tartaric acid
which inhibits the conversion
of sugar and other carbohydrates into fat. Hence, it is of great value
in weight reduction.

A helping of cabbage salad would be the simplest way to stay slim, a
painless way of dieting.

Prof Lee says that a hundred grams of cabbage yields only 27 kilo calories of energy while the same quantity of wheat bread will yield about 240 calories. Cabbage is found to possess the maximum biological value with minimum calorific value. Moreover, it gives a lasting feeling of fullness in the stomach and is easily digestible.
