converted to vitamin A during digestion.
Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, the normal functioning of the immune system, and contributes to the maintenance of normal vision, just like the famous saying we all know: "eating carrots is good for your eyes."
Fiber
Carrots contain 2.6g of fiber, which aids digestion and keeps you feeling fuller for longer. Fiber also helps mitigate the rise in blood sugar levels, making them recommended for individuals with diabetes mellitus, contrary to popular belief due to their sugar content.
Potassium
Carrots are also a source of potassium, which helps maintain electrolyte balance in the body and maintain normal blood pressure. Promoting a healthy diet and adequate potassium intake are key approaches to preventing and treating high blood pressure. The Directorate-General for Health (DGS) highlighted the importance of adequate potassium intake and the sodium/potassium ratio for preventing and treating high blood pressure by releasing a manual that presents a set of dietary recommendations to ensure potassium intake, including carrots as a key source of potassium.
Baby carrots have become a favorite in our lunchboxes. Parents prefer them for convenience, as they're considered a healthy snack option, and kids love them because they have a sweet flavor and are fun to eat! They're a great option to take to work or school.
