Fresh Pressed Red Cabbage Juice

The deep red color of freshly pressed red cabbage juice already reveals that it contains valuable nutrients. From antioxidants to fiber to anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties, freshly pressed red cabbage juice offers numerous health benefits. Let’s take a closer look at why this juice can make a significant contribution to a healthy diet.

Insights into nutrient richness and effects

Nutrient richness

Cabbage juice is an excellent source of important nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin K, potassium, manganese and folic acid. These nutrients play a role in various bodily functions and can promote overall health.Vitamin C for example, is important for the immune system, skin health and collagen production.

Antioxidants for cell protection

Red cabbage juice is rich in antioxidants such as anthocyanins, glucosinolates and vitamin C. These compounds play a crucial role in fighting free radicals that can cause cell damage. Regular consumption of red cabbage juice can help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the body and slow down the aging process (1).

Anti-inflammatory properties

Anthocyanins give red cabbage its characteristic color. The blue plant pigment has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and is associated with various health benefits (2).

Anti-cancer effect

Glucosinolates, also known as mustard oil glycosides, have potential anti-cancer properties (3). They can promote the activity of enzymes that help detoxify harmful substances. This makes red cabbage juice a potential support in cancer prevention.

Promote intestinal health

Fiber and sulfur compounds in cabbage juice can promote intestinal health by having a cleansing effect and supporting the growth of healthy intestinal bacteria. This can contribute to better digestion and a healthy gut microbiome (4).

Support heart health

Cabbage juice’s ability to lower cholesterol and regulate blood pressure may help improve heart health (5).

Support for healthy bones

Thanks to its high content of vitamin K, iron and calcium, red cabbage juice supports bone health. These nutrients are crucial for bone formation, strength and maintenance.

Easier digestibility

Some people have difficulty digesting cabbage whole due to enzyme deficiencies or an imbalance in their intestinal flora. The most common symptom after eating cabbage is bloating. Drinking cabbage juice can be a good alternative because juicing removes the fiber, making the cabbage easier to digest. In addition, the body can absorb nutrients more easily from juice than from eating whole vegetables.
