Dear Raja Chandra ji, ALERT, Cabbage is no doubt good but do you know how it is grown today. If you research you will find out that as soon as cabbage leaf grows it is sprayed with pesticides which locks inside it when the leaf folds up and this is done continuously for each layer of leaves. Thus cabbage is not fit to eat because of the way it is grown. My cousin has seen it personally around his farm in the Nilgiris. Coimbatoor. This is a fact and I had stopped eating cabbage almost 15 years ago. more
