Nutritional Benefits of Carrots

Eating carrots contributes to your daily recommended intake of fruits and vegetables. Carrots are rich in essential nutrients, but some cooking methods, like prolonged boiling, can reduce their nutritional value. Steaming carrots preserves their nutrients and allows you to enjoy their soft texture without losing the health benefits of the vegetable.

Carrots are composed of 86–95% water and about 10% carbohydrates, with very low fat and protein content. A single medium raw carrot (61 g) contains 25 calories and just 4 g of digestible carbohydrates.

By including carrots in your meals, you can enjoy a tasty, nutritious snack that supports a healthy lifestyle.
