Our Verdict
When comparing cabbage to celeriac, we picked the cabbage.
Why?
In terms of macros, cabbage has more fiber while celeriac has more carbs, for approximately the same (negligible) protein; a modest win for cabbage in this category.
In the category of vitamins,cabbage has more of vitamins A, B1, B7, B9, C, K, and choline, while celeriac has more of vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6, and E; a 7:5 win for cabbage here.
Looking at minerals, cabbage has more calcium and manganese, while celeriac has more copper, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, and zinc, scoring a round for celeriac.
In other considerations, cabbage has more polyphenols in total, although celeriac has more notably more apigenin specifically. This round goes to cabbage, but celeriac’s definitely good too.
Adding up the sections makes for an overall win for cabbage; but all means enjoy either or both though, as diversity is best!
