Sauerkraut Salad

Sauerkraut's benefits are two-fold. First, it's made of cabbage, which is known to fight cancer, treat peptic ulcers and provides vitamin C, fiber, manganese, vitamin B6 and folate. Fermenting the cabbage produces good bacteria known as probiotics, which produce beneficial enzymes, aid digestion and promote healthy flora in the digestive tract. Fermentation also produces isothiocyanates, compounds that have been shown to prevent cancer growth.

RED CABBAGE has six to eight times the vitamin C of white cabbage, as well as significantly more protective phytonutrients. The antioxidant polyphenols found in red cabbage, particularly its anthocyanins, have also been found to help prevent Alzheimer's disease.
