KOHLRABI CABBAGE
     Kohlrabi cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes) is characterized by a significant concentration of ascorbic acid (71.0% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g). Its mineral profile is notably rich in: silicon (236.0% DV per 100 g), boron (143.0%), potassium (15.0%), molybdenum (14.3%), and copper (13.2%). The carbohydrate fraction consists primarily of mono- and disaccharides (14.8%), with glucose (15.0% DV) as the predominant sugar. It contains starch (0.5 g per 100 g), while sucrose is absent from its composition.
     The total purine base content in 100 g of kohlrabi cabbage is 10% of the maximum daily norm, which should be considered by those suffering from gout.
Caloric content per 100 g: 44 kcal
