Is pickled cabbage good for you.?
Sauerkraut (aka pickled cabbage) has minimal nutrients, and some people get gas eating it, but it is delicious. I have it in my fridge at all times but have never looked to my sauerkraut for any health benefits.
Reply:cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable and is good for you, same family as broccoli
Reply:Yes. Korean Kimchi is a perfect example. Although high in sodium, it is rich in Vitamin C and fibers.
Reply:I would have to agree with the good for digestion, no real nutritional benefit, no harm either. Just tasty.
Reply:Sauerkraut is good for you - it is not necessarily "pickled", it is actually fermented. It is the healthy bacterias that cause the fermentation process, preserve the cabbage and aid in digestion.



Unless you are up to going to the trouble of making your own, I would suggest looking for a good quality, unpasteurized Sauerkraut. The only ingredients should be cabbage, salt and water.
Reply:definately!
Reply:very good.
Reply:Pickled cabbage and sauerkraut are two different foods. I found this link that tells you about cabbage and your health.

Reply:cabbage in general is good for digestion.....pickled or not....

beware....some can make you frequent the bathroom for awhile...don't plan any outings for a few hours afterwards.
