What are the benefits of raw carrots?


Empathy in care, excellence in medicine.
Carrots are rich in nutrients, including carotene, volatile oil, sugar, fat, anthocyanins, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, calcium, iron and other nutrients. Carrots are the most representative of carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in the body, which can promote the production of photosensitive pigments in the eyes, relieve eye fatigue and dry eyes, and prevent night blindness. Vitamin A can also promote the normal growth and development of bones and promote the growth of infants. And carotene can also maintain the integrity of epithelial cells, promote protein synthesis, regulate immune function, help hematopoiesis. However, it should be noted that vitamin A is fat-soluble, if raw carrots, then less absorption. Therefore, if there is vitamin A deficiency, it is recommended to cook carrots and oils together to promote vitamin A absorption.
