Carrots By Salvation Impex

Fresh Carrots Carrots are one of the most popular root vegetables carrots are perhaps best known for their beta-carotene content. (the nutrient beta-carotene was actually named after the carrot) while they can be an outstanding source of this phytonutrient, carrots actually contain a fascinating combination of phytonutrients, including other carotenoids (especially alpha-carotene and lutein), hydroxycinnamic acids (including caffeic, coumaric, ferulic), anthocyanins (in the case of purple and red carrots) and polyacetylenes (especially falcarinol and falcarindiol). Carrots are an excellent source of vitamin a (in the form of carotenoids). In addition, they are a very good source of immue-supportive vitamin c, bone-building vitamin k,  and heart-healthy dietary fiber and potassium
