To braise and praise red cabbage.
Crunchy, savory, and piquant, red cabbage has just the right flavor and consistency and couldn't be quicker to cook up or qualify as a low glycemic index, vitamin-packed nutrient.
Cabbage is high in Vitamin K. Deficiency of this nutrient is rare but can occur with malabsorption issues such as bulimia and poor diet. Bruising and heavy bleeding are two signs of a deficiency.
Warning: Drug interactions with blood-thinners. Also Synthetic vitamin K has been banned by USDA. So if you see it don't take it!
Wayfarin and Coumadin are two heart medicines that work to thin the blood by blocking Vitamin K and require frequent blood testing. New heart medicines are available that do not have to control food intake or repeat blood tests so frequently potentially allowing you to free yourself from drug dependence through better food habits.
Guideline daily amount for 100 grams of red cabbage:
vitamin K 79.3%
vitamin C 68.8%
vitamin B 6 20%
fiber 15.6%
potassium 11.2%
vitamin B1 9.1%
vitamin B2 6.9%
vitamin B3 3.5%
protein 4.5%
