Is Cabbage good for weight loss?

Yes — a good choice

Cabbage carries roughly 22 kcal per 100 g, which is low for an everyday Indian food. You can fit reasonable portions into a fat-loss diet without much trouble, as long as the rest of your day stays within your calorie target.

Is Cabbage good for muscle gain?

Mainly an energy food

Cabbage provides about 1.4 g of protein per 100 g, which counts as low for Indian foods. That works out to roughly 6.4 g of protein per 100 kcal, so it is a reasonable way to hit a protein target. Pair it with a dedicated protein source — dal, curd, paneer, eggs, soya or chicken — rather than relying on it for muscle growth.

Health tips for eating Cabbage

Steam, stir-fry or add it to dal and sabzi with just 1–2 tsp of oil. Aim to fill half your plate with vegetables like this.
