Table of Contents
Good day friends. Blessed day it is as you set about making a living and when talking about LIVING, We cannot override the importance of nutrition of which vegetables are Chief.
What is Coleslaw?
The word “coleslaw” means cabbage salad and many people confuse salad and coleslaw.
Salad is the combination of different food that are small in sizes to which vegetables are included and coleslaw just happen to fall under it.. So I was thinking, with this definition, is smallchops a salad if cucumber is added?
Health benefit
As usual, I will not go too deep into the chemistry so as not to bore you but believe me when I say cabbage prevents cancer of the colon, prostrate etc.
It is anti-cancerous. It fights cancer through different enzymes of which sinigrin is part.
It’s also a source of fibre and it has anti-inflammatory proteins. Addition benefit is that it fights bad cholesterols.
Kk. Let’s stop there before I start going into the LDL cholesterols(oh sorry, I’m already saying it lol) By the way, Im a microbiologist; hence my love for food nutrition.
