Vegetarian Potée

The more cabbage you eat, the less you are risk of developing bowel (and other) cancers. This is due in part to the fibre in the vegetables, and also to the antioxidant effects of the vitamin C and the antocarcinogenic effects of the cruciferous bioflavonoids and indoles present in all members of the cabbage family.
