About Carrots

Carrots are vibrant root vegetables originating from Asia and Europe, now a staple in global cuisines. Packed with nutrients, they’re an excellent source of beta-carotene, which converts to vitamin A, supporting eye health, immune function, and skin vitality. Carrots are also rich in fiber, vitamin K, potassium, and antioxidants, promoting heart health, digestion, and overall well-being. With a naturally sweet, earthy flavor, they’re a versatile ingredient in soups, salads, stir-fries, and even desserts like carrot cake. Low in calories, they make a great snack raw or roasted. However, carrot juice and processed forms may lack fiber and come with added sugars, so moderation is key. Whether enjoyed fresh or cooked, carrots are a nutritious addition to any diet.
