About Carrot
A common root vegetable; good for stir-frying and stewing.
Health Benefits of Carrot
Standout beta-carotene
Carrot is the classic beta-carotene food - a nutrient converted to vitamin A in the body, supporting vision and skin/mucous-membrane integrity. Stir-frying or eating with fat raises absorption.
Rich in fibre
~2.8g fibre per 100g - strong for a root vegetable, supporting gut health.
Raw or cooked
Carrot works raw in salads or cooked in stir-fries, soups and stews. Cooking loses some vitamin C but actually raises beta-carotene absorption.
