General Info:
The Carrot is a biennial plant consisting of a rosette of leafy dark green foliage and a taproot. The taproot is generally colored a bright orange, however varieties of red, white, purple, and yellow do occur to a smaller extent. The Carrot is harvested by pulling the entire plant up and collecting the roots. The Carrot has a mellow, sweet flavor, and is one of the most popular vegetables in the United States.

Carrots are well-known for their high content of beta carotene and Vitamin A. With good reason too, because research shows that powerful antioxidants like beta carotene may promote cardiovascular health, and Vitamin A paves the way to healthy skin by promoting the production of collagen. Vitamin A is also said to be beneficial to ovary health. Beta-carotene also helps promote healthy vision. After beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A in the liver, it travels to the retina where it is transformed into rhodopsin, a purple pigment that is necessary for night-vision. Studies have also shown that the intake of carotenoids may be helpful in glucose metabolism in some individuals. Carrots also contain many other important nutrients like Thiamin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate and Manganese, and are also a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin K and Potassium.
