Carrot (Daucus carota L. var. sativa Hoffm.), native to southwest Asia, is now widely planted all over the world. Carrot is a nutritious vegetable, rich in sugar, fat, volatile oil, carotene, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, anthocyanin, calcium, iron and other nutrients needed by the human body. American scientists have confirmed that eating two carrots a day can reduce blood cholesterol by 10% to 20%; eating three carrots a day can help prevent heart disease and tumors. Chinese medicine believes that carrots can be used for gastrointestinal upset, constipation, night blindness, sexual dysfunction, malnutrition in children and other symptoms.
