I am finding the cabbage discussion interesting. I was looking in Lawrence, and she identifies the following, p. 258: " Cabbage is noted to contain sinigrin (allyl isothiocyanate) and rapine. Herbalists consider rapine to be an antifungal antibiotic. The text lists galactogogues and lactation suppressants found in other plants but does not mention any mammary effects of cabbage."
