    There are no disadvantages of eating cabbage.Cabbage is an excellent health food for those wanting to lose weight.It is an excellent source of Vitamin C and E and dietary nutrients like both soluble and insoluble fiber, sugar and carbohydrates.Various minerals like manganese, folate, potassium,sodium, Vitamin B6 and Omega-3 acids.It also contains Vitamin A, B1, B2, and phytochemicals.Cabbage is good for people with peptic ulcers, and it is believed to inhibit various types of cancer like prostrate, breast,lung and bladder.Eating cabbage also enhances the immune system. The only disadvantage this vegetable has is it cause flatulence and can aggravate thyroid problems.

    Cabbage is considered a high fiber, lower calorie food filler. It is one of the richest when it comes to protective vitamins. Raw cabbage cleans the waste from the stomach and upper bowels which improves digestion and reduces constipation.
    Some people do tend to suffer digestive distress due to gas from cabbage. Try blanching the whole or quartered cabbage for five minutes, change the water, and then continue cooking in fresh water if necessary.

    Since cabbage can interfere with the uptake of iodine, those with goiter conditions should consult their physician before eating cabbage.

    Although consumption of cabbage may aggravate a pre-existing thyroid condition, it is generally not the initiating factor of such a condition.
