Tag: Benefits of cabbage

According to a 2021 BBC Good Food article, a standard shop-bought coleslaw can contain up to 173 calories and 16.3g of fat per 100g serving, primarily due to the mayonnaise dressing. The question of whether coleslaw is healthy is nuanced, with the final verdict hinging entirely on its preparation and ingredients. While the base of cabbage and carrots is nutrient-dense, the dressing can either elevate or undermine its nutritional value.

The cabbage soup diet, a well-known weight loss method, suggests rapid weight loss, sometimes up to 10 pounds in a week. However, this often involves temporary water weight and isn't a long-term nutritional plan.
