Cabbage Detox Soup usually contains cabbage, onion, tomatoes, peppers, and sometimes celery, garlic, or herbs. Ingredients vary by recipe. The word “detox” is a popular label, not evidence that the soup has a special cleansing effect.
Cabbage Detox Soup can contribute to short-term weight loss if it replaces a more energy-dense meal, but it does not cause lasting weight loss on its own. Very restrictive cabbage soup plans are hard to sustain, and weight can return when normal eating resumes.
To make Cabbage Detox Soup, simmer chopped cabbage with onion, tomatoes, peppers, and water or stock until the vegetables are tender. Season it with herbs and spices. For a more satisfying bowl, add beans or serve it alongside a source of protein.
No, Cabbage Detox Soup has not been shown to remove toxins from the body. The liver and kidneys handle the body’s routine processing and removal of waste. The soup can be a way to eat more vegetables, but it is not a detox treatment.
Yes, Cabbage Detox Soup freezes well, although the vegetables may be softer after thawing. Cool it promptly, freeze it in meal-sized airtight containers, and thaw it in the refrigerator. Reheat until steaming hot before serving.
Cabbage Detox Soup may cause gas because cabbage contains fermentable carbohydrates that gut bacteria break down; onion can add to the effect. Thorough cooking and starting with a smaller serving may help, though some people remain sensitive to these ingredients.
Cabbage Detox Soup keeps for about 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly after cooking, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat until it is steaming hot.
You can include Cabbage Detox Soup regularly as part of varied meals, but relying on it as your main food every day can leave meals unbalanced. Add a protein-rich food and other ingredients rather than using the soup as a restrictive all-day diet.
Beans, lentils, shredded chicken, or tofu can make Cabbage Detox Soup more filling by adding protein. Potatoes or whole grains such as barley also make it heartier. Add them while cooking, allowing enough time for each ingredient to become tender.
Yes, red cabbage works in Cabbage Detox Soup, but it gives the broth a deeper purple color and a slightly different flavor from green or white cabbage. Add it in place of the usual cabbage and cook until tender.

Cabbage Detox Soup is a light vegetable soup made with cabbage, often simmered with onions, tomatoes, peppers or other vegetables. The “detox” name is used for this style of soup, but it does not refer to one fixed traditional recipe; ingredients and seasonings vary from kitchen to kitchen. The vegetables are cooked until tender in water or stock.
Its mild, savoury flavour and soft texture make it an easy lunch or a warm starter, and it can also accompany a fuller meal. At 22 calories per 100 g, it is a low-calorie option that contributes some fibre. For a more substantial bowl, pair it with whole-grain bread or add beans; using a modest amount of oil keeps the soup light.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
