#Healthyfood Red Cabbage Processes Anti-Bacteria Infection, Researchers Say

Infectious diseases are medical conditions caused by pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi.
Most cases of infectious diseases are contagious by spreading directly or indirectly, from one person to another.

In other words, if you kiss, or are coughed or sneezed on by an infectious person, you are at risk of developing the same infectious disease.

According to the statistic provided by the World Health Organization, 3 infectious diseases were ranked in the top ten causes of death worldwide in 2016.

More precisely, lower respiratory infections, diarrheal diseases, and tuberculosis induced 3.0 million, 1.4 million, and 1.3 million deaths, respectively.

Conventionally, most cases of infectious diseases except those caused by viruses are treated with antibiotics.

Bacteria is a type of biological cell consisting of a single cell with a simple internal structure.

The most common diseases caused by bacteria include strep throat, urinary tract infections, and tuberculosis.

Infection occurs when the bacteria successfully invade the body and start to multiply. Most cases of infectious diseases caused by bacteria are treated with antibiotics.

And, most cases of infectious disease are transmitted by airborne you can get sick if you breathe into the air that carries infectious bacteria in air particles, vector-borne if you are stunk by the insect that the bacteria, and vehicle-borne if you are eating food or carrying the materials contaminated by the bacteria.

Most cases of bacterial invasion are met with the first line of immune white blood cells. In the active division of bacteria in the acute phase of infection, the immune system response activated the production of the proinflammatory cytokine to the site of infection with an aim to kill off all bacteria.

However, if the immune fails to kill off all the bacteria within the 3 - 8 weeks period, it then will adapt to the change, leading to chronic inflammatory and infectious diseases.

Cabbage is a species of Brassica oleracea belongings to the family Brassicaceae (or Cruciferae), native to the Mediterranean region along the seacoast. The veggie has a short stem with a crowded mass of leaves, usually green but in some varieties, it may be red or purplish.

To find a natural wholefood for the prevention of infectious disease, researchers examined the B. oleracea L (red cabbage) anti-microbial activity.

In 22 pathogenic bacteria and fungi, B. oleracea L (red cabbage) demonstrated antibacterial (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli O157: H7, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium) and antifungal (Trichophyton rubrum and Aspergillus terreus) activities at a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC), respectively.


In Chemical analysis, the potent antimicrobial action from B. oleracea L (red cabbage) was attributed to the rich source of phenolic compounds, anthocyanins.

Based on the results, researchers wrote, "This extract is potentially novel for future antimicrobials, inexpensive, and readily available at a large scale for pharmaceutical companies for further investigation and processing".

Taken altogether, red cabbage may be considered a natural antibiotic, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
