Part of the huge family of cruciferous vegetables, cabbage contains many anti-inflammatory compounds and antioxidants, which can help protect the body’s immune system, warding off disease.

This salad is refreshing, very tasty, and dead simple to create, especially if you use a mandoline to slice up the cabbage and celery.
