Hello, I’m Ty Mason from TheDiabetesCouncil.com, researcher, writer and I have type 2 diabetes. Today I’m going to answer the question, is cabbage good for diabetes. But before we get into that, make sure you download my free diabetes management book which also includes a diabetes grocery shopping guide (foods to eat and avoid).

True or false: Cabbage is in the same family of vegetables as lettuce.

False, although they look very similar cabbage is actually a part of the cruciferous vegetable family. Believe it or not, lettuce part of the daisy family.

Now that we have our botany lesson out of the way, let’s take a closer look at cabbage.

Cabbage has been cultivated for more than 4,000 years. It has been grown for food (domesticated) for over 2,500 years.

I am sure most of you think of a connection of cabbage and the Irish, however the Celts brought cabbage to Europe from Asia around 600 B.C.

Cabbage comes in various colors, the most common being green, red and purple. Cabbage leaves can be smooth or crinkled. A cup of cooked cabbage contains only 35 calories.

Cabbage contains high amounts of Vitamin C and K, Magnesium, Folate, as well as antioxidants choline, beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin as well as the various flavonoids.

Cabbage has a GI 10 and GL of 1, so it will not affect your blood sugar.

A 2007 study at UAE University came to an exciting conclusion concerning cabbage.

Diabetes was induced in 60 rats. For a 2 month period the rats were studied and showed all the symptoms of one with Type 2 diabetes.

Cabbage extract was then added to the diets of the rats for 60 days. The cabbage reversed the adverse effects of diabetes at the end of the trial period. The extract lowered blood glucose levels and restored renal function and body weight loss in the experiment.

The study concluded that the antioxidant and antihyperglycemic properties of cabbage extract may offer a potential therapeutic source for the treatment of diabetes.

So is cabbage good for diabetes? Yes it most certainly is. Cabbage is low in cals and carbs, high in fiber, low GI and GL. Plus, it actually has the potential to help lower blood sugar levels and aid in weight loss!

What’s not good about that!
