About Cenoura

Cenoura, known as carrot in English, is a vibrant orange root vegetable widely enjoyed across various cuisines worldwide. Native to regions of Europe and Southwestern Asia, this versatile ingredient adds crunch and natural sweetness to dishes ranging from soups and salads to desserts like carrot cake. Packed with nutrients, cenoura boasts high levels of beta-carotene, which the body converts to vitamin A, supporting eye health and immune function. It also contains fiber, potassium, and antioxidants, contributing to heart health and digestion. Low in calories and free of fat, cenoura is a nutritious and guilt-free snack when eaten raw or lightly cooked. Overconsumption, especially in juice form, may lead to excess sugar intake or carotenemia, a harmless condition causing temporary skin discoloration. Balanced use of cenoura in meals provides both flavor and a wealth of health benefits.
