Features: Onion, known as one of the oldest medicines in human civilization, has been used to treat almost all diseases in ancient Mesopotamia (a region in Southwest Asia). Onion helps restore fatigue, calm the mind, alleviate anxiety, and improve sleep. Notably, it can lower blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol, preventing cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, it can inhibit fat formation and dissolve blood clots formed by high-fat foods, even when heated, without losing its effect. For example, onions in hamburgers, fried omelets, or as toppings on pizza are paired based on this principle.
Cabbage is widely cultivated worldwide and originated along the Mediterranean coast. Cauliflower, broccoli, and the familiar purple cabbage all belong to the same family as cabbage. Cabbage is rich in vitamin C and vitamin U, which aid in the recovery of mucosal tissues, and also contains various antioxidants. Cabbage not only promotes digestion but also helps prevent colds, alleviate fatigue, whiten the skin, relieve constipation, improve anemia, and reduce stress. The vitamin C and vitamin U in cabbage are water-soluble, so the amount decreases when cooked. Therefore, it is better to eat it as a soup. People with poor digestion or weak constitutions should avoid raw cabbage and prefer eating it after heating. P11-12
