Maintaining health in conditions, when the daily menu often includes fried foods, becomes an important task for many.
This is reported by URA-Inform with reference to the telegram channel “Doctor in the pocket”.
Recent studies show that cabbage may play a key role in minimizing the harm caused by fried meat, which, when cooked at high temperatures, releases carcinogens – substances that increase the risk of developing cancer.
Experts say that this humble vegetable contains a complex of bioactive substances such as glucosinolates, which activate enzymes that help neutralize carcinogenic elements.
In addition, cabbage enriches the body with antioxidants that support immunity and protect cells from damage. For example, regular consumption of cabbage helps strengthen the body's protective barriers and reduces inflammatory processes, which often lead to chronic diseases.
It is especially important to combine fried meat with greens, including parsley, dill and celery, which improves digestion and adds more antioxidant and detoxifying properties to the dish.
Thus, consuming cabbage as part of the diet can not only improve overall health, but also serve as an important factor in disease prevention.
Doctors also spoke about how sweet foods and fruits affect blood pressure.
