I was talking to my local agricultural extension agent a couple of weeks ago
about some animal stuff and if he knwo of local farmers who use cabbage for
engorgement of their breeding females. Yes a gew do but they have troubles
with them eating them.  according to him cabbage has large amounts of
estrogen which helps the let down. Infact has more estrogen than a glass of
milk.  I have used this on a cat and a bitch dog ( had better clarify there)
and it worked for them and their pups well.

Aslo cabbage is use to trat gastritis as it protects the stomach membrane
from hydrocloric acid and is indicated in use for stomach and duodenal
ulcers.

other ingredients include mustard oils, goitrin, and some sulfonamide type
compounds.

for ulcers take 1 liter of juice daily to a bland diet. ( to get juice it
has to be cooked)
