Cabbage named also as Brassica oleracea is a leaf vegetable. Cabbage is round in shape with layers of superimposed leaves with the inner leaves often lighter in color than the outer leaves because they are protected from the sunlight. They belong to the Cruciferae family of vegetables along with kale, broccoli, collards and Brussels sprouts. Cabbage is herbaceous, biennial, and a dicotyledonous flowering plant with leaves forming a characteristic compact cluster. Always regarded as a good source of vitamins, Cabbage recently has been shown to have disease-preventive properties as well.
In European folk medicine,Cabbage leaves are used to treat acute inflammation. A paste of raw Cabbage may be placed in a Cabbage leaf and wrapped around the affected area to reduce discomfort. Some claim Cabbage is effective in relieving painfully engorged breasts in breastfeeding women.
