In India carrots are used in vegetables and also as salad. Generally people prefer them more in the winter months. People say they lower blood pressure. Are there really health benefits of having carrots?

Carrots are a good source of beta carotene, fiber, vitamin K1, vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants.

Here as well!! Carrots are good for eyesight... also, it is recommended here to eat carrots at least two hours before going to the beach (sunbathing) so that the skin quickly gets a darker color due to carotene.

Thanks Lowrider, it was very educative. I came to know about the carotene factor from your write up.
