Important
Due to the fact that Cabbage is a green juice, you will find it beneficial to have no more than about ¼ of your juice consisting of green juice.
Cabbage can cause some people to experience an increase in gas. Cabbage can also cause people to experience some mild cramping in the intestines. This is due to the fact that Cabbage is high in sulfur. This sulfur reacts with bacteria inside the intestines causing this problem. If you notice this, then simply reduce the amount you have.
General
Cabbage is a cheap and readily available vegetable. It's very nutritious and much more nutritious when raw versus cooked. I personally prefer Red Cabbage as darker vegetables have more nutrients.
