Q & A

  • What are some of the health benefits of carrots?

    -Carrots have many health benefits. They are good for eye health due to the beta carotene which converts to Vitamin A. They help cleanse the liver, promote skin health and anti-aging, prevent strokes and cardiovascular disease, and improve digestion.

  • Why do carrots help prevent strokes?

    -Carrots help prevent strokes because the beta carotene and other nutrients help reduce inflammation, while the potassium helps expand blood vessels. A long-term study found that women who ate carrots 2+ times per week had a 70% reduced risk of strokes.

  • How can carrots improve skin health?

    -The beta carotene and antioxidants in carrots help protect the skin from sun damage. Carrots also promote liver health to remove toxins, and the vitamin A helps generate collagen to reduce signs of aging. Studies found carrots had a skin-whitening effect in men after 2 weeks.

  • Should you peel carrots before eating them?

    -It's best not to peel carrots if possible. The skin contains antioxidants, and peeling can reduce the nutrient quality. Just wash them well instead of peeling.

  • Do carrots destroy vitamin C in the body?

    -No, carrots do not destroy or use up vitamin C in the body. This myth came from people wrongly extrapolating studies about ascorbic acid in supplements, but vitamin C from whole foods like carrots works differently.

  • What's the best way to eat carrots for absorption?

    -Raw carrots or lightly cooked carrots have the best absorption. Cooking them in oil can increase the carotenoid absorption by 50%. Grated carrots also absorb better than carrot sticks.

  • Can you eat too many carrots?

    -It's very difficult to overdose on carrots. Unlike processed sweets, your brain knows when you've had enough natural carbohydrates from whole foods like fruits and veggies, and you will naturally stop eating them when full.

  • What carrot juice combinations work well?

    -Some good carrot juice combination options are: carrot + apple, carrot + beet, carrot + ginger, carrot + celery, carrot + orange.

  • When is the best time to drink carrot juice?

    -The best time to drink carrot juice is in the morning on an empty stomach. This allows maximum nutrient absorption while energizing you for the day. Many natural healing clinics recommend a morning carrot + apple juice.

  • Are conventionally grown carrots safe to eat?

    -Conventionally grown carrots are still very healthy, but organic is best to avoid pesticide residue. Washing non-organic carrots well helps remove most pesticides since they breakdown quickly. Choose organic when possible.
