One of 15 Foods Excellent for Kidney Health: Cabbage

I've also made cabbage rolls before but its a lot of work when I am the only one eating them!!

• treatment of: constipation, stomach ulcers, headache, excess weight, skin disorders, eczema, jaundice, scurvy, rheumatism, arthritis, gout, eye disorders, heart diseases, ageing, and Alzheimer's disease
• full of vitamin C
• antioxidant
• rich in fibre
• helps prevent cancer
• full of vitamin A (good for eyes)
• high in vitamin D
• red cabbage powerful antioxidant

If you suffer from gout (arthritis) issues as I do it is important to note that cabbage is an EXCELLENT vegetable as it helps neutralize uric acid in the blood stream and cut down on flare ups or attacks.

I have added it to my diet on a more regular basis!

I simply want to share what I am learning throughout my own personalized journey to wellness. It has been said, "Write what you know." THIS I know because I live with it DAILY. Having said that:

Food has been a struggle for me for a long while now but I MUST work at this and TRY hard to eat right and healthy and improve as much as I possibly can for as long as I possibly can so I figured if I am struggling with these things DAILY and doing all this work and learning ANYWAY, why not SHARE things that I am learning with others and make their journey a little bit easier for them too.

SO, I started these pages as a help BOTH for myself and for YOU.

If it is helpful PLEASE feel free to let me know! ;)

This is a HARD process and journey to wellness and I hope that if even for a moment, even ONE item or idea or trick that I share makes your journey lighter or easier then I have given purpose and meaning to the reasons why or how this has been MINE as well.

I always wish you well and good luck with your journey too. xo
