Cabbage Juice
The anti-ulcer properties of cabbage have made it a popular food choice for those seeking a natural home remedy. Many years before antibiotics were developed, it was purportedly used by doctors to treat stomach ulcers. Specifically, cabbage juice is useful in treating and preventing various gastric ulcers. It has high levels of vitamin C, an antioxidant that has been proven effective against and in the treatment of H. pylori infections.
Regular consumption of fresh cabbage juice appears to aid in healing stomach ulcers. In some studies, it was more successful than the standard therapy at the time. Glucoraphanin, found in abundance in cabbage, is easily converted by the body into sulforaphane.
Sulforaphane may be used by your cells to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and protect against several illnesses. Cabbage has high glutamine content; an amino acid that provides anti-inflammatory effects. Moreover, it has antioxidant capabilities, which boosts antioxidant enzyme levels and protects against free radical activity. Some molecules found in cabbage stimulate DNA repair cells and inhibit cancer cell proliferation. It also raises the pH level of gastric juice, which helps prevent and treat acute stomach ulcers.
