Carrots are rich in potassium and thus reduce blood pressure, they are rich in antioxidants and support a healthy immune system – which is great for the winter. They are also great for weight loss and diabetes due to their high fiber and low energy content and they reduce blood sugar levels as well. They are also super tasty and even improve eyesight!
