PictureHealth Benefits of Carrots
Many people know carrots as the most reliable source of Vitamin A and they are right! There is much more to carrots that go beyond vitamin A. For instance, did you know that carrots can prevent cancer and can be used as an anti-aging tool? Carrots when included in the diets can provide many health benefits to a family. That is why some experts recommend carrots for body healing. 

Here are some ways in which they can help your body heal:
  • Carrots improves a person’s eye sight
Are carrots really good for eyes? Sure they are and it is because of a compound found within them known as beta-carotene. This compound is the one converted to vitamin A which is eventually transformed to rhodopsin in the retina. Rhodopsin helps in improving an individual’s night vision. Beta-carotene also helps in minimizing chances of macular degeneration.

  • Carrots help in preventing cancer
Yes, you read it right! Carrots can keep you from getting some types of cancer! Research has proved that having carrots as part of your diet reduces risks of getting colon, breast and lung cancers. Anti-cancer properties in carrots are found in falcarindiol and falcarinol compounds found in carrots.

  • Carrots give a healthy skin
One major benefit of vitamin A is that it has the capacity to protect your skin from sun damage. If a person lacks this vitamin, his skin will be dry and this may lead to pre-mature wrinkling. Intake of carrots prevents this and ensures that the skin is acne free, always healthy and free from blemishes. Carrots therefore effectively maintain skin tone.

  • Carrots act as an anti-aging agent
Do you want to look young for long? Eat carrots! Beta-carotene compound found in carrots will act as an antioxidant and effectively regulate metabolism. The aging process of the cells will thus be slowed making you look young for longer.

  • Carrots can be used as antiseptics
When applied externally on cuts, carrots can effectively prevent such cuts from getting infected. During use, you can either shred your carrots, boil them or smash and apply on the cut area.

This is not all, there are many more ways in which carrots can heal you and protect you. For instance, intake of carrots can prevent heart related diseases, cleanse your body off toxins, ensure healthy teeth and gums and prevent stroke! Try as much as you can to include carrots into your dieting plans.
