White cabbage is an edible biennial plant with an almost spherical, oblong or oval shape, which can be white with greenish, light green or purple tones.

Many of the cabbages have thick alternate leaves, whose margins can range from somewhat wavy or rough to very dissected margins. The leaves are large in size and can range from dark green to light green.

White cabbage is composed of considerable amounts of vitamin K and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium, which are essential for the development and fortification of the skeletal system, so it is recommended for young people who are in the growth stage.
