Orange You Glad

Orange You You’ll Learn About Carrots?

These vibrant roots are a fantastic source of carotenoids, the potent antioxidants responsible for giving carrots their orange color. Along with their beutiful hue, an abundance of carotenoids in one’s diet can help to decrease the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer, as well as, bladder, cervix, prostate, colon, larynx, and esophagueal cancer. Carrots can also aid in reducing the risks of kidney and ovarian cancers.
In addition to their cancer fighting abilities, the nutrients in carrots also prevent cardiovascular disease, help strengthen the immune system, and promote colon health.
Carrots contain other goodies, including calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, fiber, vitamin C, and an incredible amount of vitamin A.
Your Mom was correct when she said “carrots are good for your eyes”. They contain lutein and zeaxanthin, which work together to prevent macular degeneration and cataracts and promote overall eye health.
Diets low in carotenoids are linked to heart disease and various cancers, so make sure you eat at least 1 carrot each day and enjoy them year-round. Culinarily and nutritionally speaking, carrots are good for you whether they’re raw or cooked. In fact, cooking them helps to break down the tough fibers, making some of the nutrients more easily absorbed.

 

 

Tips:
-Precut baby carrots are made from whole carrots and, although convenient, they lose important nutrients during processing
-Remove carrot tops before storing them in the fridge, as the tops drain moisture from the roots and will cause the carrots to wilt.

-Buy organic; conventionally grown carrots frequently show high pesticide residues
