[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report] Cabbage is produced in all seasons and is also known as a natural gastrointestinal medicine.

In this regard, the nutritionist reminds that those with hypothyroidism and easy flatulence should eat less cabbage, because it contains isothiocyanate, which will inhibit the thyroid gland from absorbing iodine when there is too much in the body; After oligosaccharides enter the intestinal tract, they are not easily absorbed and can easily cause flatulence, but this problem can be solved as long as they are cooked for a longer time.

Dietitian Ma Fengyin posted on the Facebook fan page "Mature Health Care Expert - Ma Fengyin Nutritionist" that cabbage in winter tastes crisper and sweeter, because cabbage is quite cold-tolerant and can withstand low temperatures of 10°C. More sugar can be accumulated during the season, therefore, every November to next April is the best tasting period for cabbage.

So choose delicious cabbage, choose light ones in spring and heavy ones in winter.

Purple cabbage is often seen in salads, and some people think that purple cabbage has a bitter taste; in this regard, Ma Fengyin said that the bitter taste is because it is rich in anthocyanins, ranging from 109-185 mg per 100 grams. It is better than purple onions, eggplants and purple sweet potatoes. At the same time, anthocyanins can not only promote the growth of the photosensitive substance rhodopsin in the eyes, but also protect blood vessels.

Cabbage may inhibit thyroid iodine absorption
