Brassicas are so healthful, though. Is it really worth avoiding them? Plus... No cabbage? Why even live then?
Cabbage... Found the Russian.

Ferment the cabbage first. Fermented cabbage is gtg.
Brassicas literally are bad for your thyroid. Look it up. Brassicas and almonds literally poison your thyroid. Not making this up.
I will look it up, but let the record show I'm dubious.
A certain amount of almonds will kill you. Humans shouldn’t even eat them. Traditional cultures that ate them didn’t eat them like we do. I understand all the hype cabbage and plant-based eating gets. I assure you almost all “nutritional research” is garbage. Most vegetables we eat weren’t even around for most of history. When you read old literature only poor and sick people ate all the bullshit they now market as health food. Plants are either trying to kill you and/or get you to spread their seed. Wheat has an opiate in it. Sugar is addicting. But most leafy plants and nuts bearing shrubs or trees are trying to kill you. All of them. The ones we eat are just not that good at it. Tomatoes were deadly and only an ornamental plant until bread to not kill you. Raw Cassava kills you. Raw kidney beans and all sorts of legume and nightshades can kill you if improperly consumed. Aboriginal Australians ate mostly meat their entire history and prematurely age far more than agricultural Europeans. There’s a species of mustard, wild brassica that will kill you. Cabbages etc are not deadly. But they have trade-offs. All plants we eat today have anti-nutrient issues and likely other currently unknown issues.
It’s not healthy. More like it’s not that unhealthy. If you look at nutritional density by the numbers in actual data tables of all foods….red meat is almost all you need. Eggs. Shellfish or small oily fish. Plants are nothing compared to animals foods. Like nothing. Most humans that ever lived in time never ate cabbage and were far healthier and fit specimens. There’s a reason Northern Europeans and Central Asians average heights and IQs are larger than most of the planet. Agriculture came much later to them. All that crap we hear is mostly marketing and propaganda. Throughout most of history urbanized people could not reliably get meat into cities until the last hundred years so people became riddled with disease living shorter biological lives living off plants.
