What are the advantages and disadvantages of drinking carrot juice?

1, benefiting liver and improving eyesight

Carrots contain a lot of carotene, the molecular structure of which is equivalent to two molecules of vitamin A. After entering the body, 50% of them become vitamin A through the action of enzymes in the liver and small intestine mucosa, which has the function of nourishing the liver and improving eyesight and can treat night blindness.

2, diaphragm wide intestine

Carrots contain plant fiber, which is highly absorbent and easy to swell in the intestine. It is a "filling substance" in the intestine, which can strengthen the peristalsis of the intestine, thus benefiting the diaphragm, widening the intestine, relaxing the bowels and preventing cancer.

3. Enhance immune function

Carotene is converted into vitamin A, which helps to enhance the immune function of the body and plays an important role in preventing epithelial cells from canceration. Lignin in carrots can also improve human immune mechanism and indirectly destroy cancer cells.

4. Promote bone growth

Vitamin A in carrots is an essential substance for the normal development of bones, which is beneficial to the reproduction and growth of cells.

Second, shortcomings.

If you like carrots, you should also pay attention to the right amount. Because vitamin A is fat-soluble, it will not be excreted with urine when it is surplus in human body, but stored in liver and fat, leading to vitamin A poisoning. In addition to nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, blurred vision and loss of muscle coordination, it will also turn the skin into carrot color.

Extended data

The nutritional eating method of carrots is stuffing jiaozi and steaming steamed bread. There are three main reasons:

1, β -carotene rich in carrots can only be absorbed by human body if it is dissolved in oil. When carrots are mixed with meat to make stuffing, animal fat will increase the absorption rate of β-carotene. To make vegetarian stuffing, it is best to stir-fry the cut carrots in the oil pan several times to dissolve β-carotene before making stuffing.

2. After the carrots are chopped, the nutrients are more easily absorbed.

Because carrots have a special taste, some people don't like them. Adding carrots to the stuffing, the taste of meat and eggs can effectively "mask" the taste of carrots, so that nutrition and taste can be combined.
