Does red cabbage have antioxidants? Yes, the purple pigments in it are a rich source of anthocyanins, which are responsible for much of the total antioxidant content in the vegetable. The boiled version maintains a high amount. Purple cabbage and red cabbage are the same thing, it's just a preference as to what you prefer to call it.
