It takes a combination of foods, not just one, to create a healthy body. Today, we’re going to talk about an additional food you should add to your daily salads: carrots.

We’ve talked before about why you can have carrots on keto but haven’t gone in-depth on the health benefits of carrots.

One medium carrot has 4.3 net carbs and a low glycemic load, so having one carrot daily won’t push you out of ketosis.

Health benefits of carrots:
1. The fiber in carrots may help detox and balance estrogen
2. They lessen the activation of procarcinogens
3. They contain antioxidants
4. They’re antiangiogenic
5. They have anticlotting properties
6. They have properties that can help fight mycoplasma
7. They may help reduce intestinal inflammation
8. They’re antitumor
9. They’re anticancer

I suggest eating at least one medium organic carrot every day to help boost your health.

I haven't been sick for almost 13 years ever since Ive been consuming raw carrots. Both my parents were diagnosed with breast, lung, and prostate cancer years ago. Ever since they've been consuming raw carrots and raw vegetables, no signs of cancer. Doctors don't want to know what they've been doing, they just say keep doing what you're doing.

My mother-in-law lived to 99 and was rarely sick. She ate lots of raw carrots. She would always quote her mother who told her as a child to “eat the rainbow”. She gave credit for the quote to a doctor of that time.

This Doctor needs to be cloned and put into EVERY medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about HEALTH. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way.
I just love learning from his simple to understand videos... I respect this man immensely 😊😊👍👍

Dr. Ray Peat carrot salad:
2 carrots grated
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1tbs melted coconut oil
Sea salt

Organic produce farmer here. I grow around 5, 000 per year. We eat 2-3 everyday. Fresh, because we grow them during the winter in a heated greenhouse; although they winter over EXTREMELY well outside. Just cut off almost all of the green tops and mulch them very heavily with straw, and cover that with a tarp. Actually they get sweeter after a frost or two.

I eat 2-3 (organic) carrots a day, grated and mixed with a whole diced avocado, grated (raw) beetroot, sauerkraut, extra virgin olive oil, raw apple cider and Himalayan salt. Sometimes I also mix some seaweed (wakame) and I also make combinations with other veggies or maybe diced hard-boiled egg. It is an everyday staple salad, and I love it.

[SkyRunner]

I hereby testify that everything our dear Doctor says is true and I've experienced first hand for many years.
We love you sir🤗

I'm 37. I have been eating 1 raw carrot a day for last 17 years. I was told it is good for eyes. I also found it keeps my bowel clean. I didn't know about the other benefits. Thanks Dr Berg.

[MayaShantiSoulpeace]

🥰 Thank you, doctor Berg! I've eaten raw carrot every day always, together with green salads, sour craute with applecider vinegar and Virgin olive oil. I am happy and healthy🙏😊

Carrots celery kale and blueberries has been my staple in the beginning of my health journey. Adding the carrot has proven to enhance my vision, so much so, my drivers license corrective lenses has been removed. Passing the vision test without eyeglasses for the first time in over 20 years seems unreal.

[FredEvrardAcademy]

Thanks for the video Dr. Berg. I have always wondered Why so many people heal from cancer eating raw carrots or drinking carrot juice when “everybody” says it’s too sweet for cancer patient. I have my answer. Thank you so much.

[lindapietrasz]

My father used to tell me that carrots made my eyes shine. I never did believe a word that man said. 🥕🥕🥕

[umashankerverma]

Carrots have anticancer properties.
I am a cancer patient over a decade .
I have done four times surgery and three times chemo.
But present time I take 🥕 juice and it's effect is my tumor size is control and I want to carry on.

I’ve been seeing so many of your videos, Dr. Berg. And I feel for the first time that my symptoms have been understood. So, I had covid last year in August and since then I’ve been having anxiety attacks, bloating, burps and occasionally acid reflux after 1 hour of having food and constant horrible breath despite oral hygiene. I suspect I may have SIBO or gut dysbiosis. I’ve started intermittent fasting and it has been 5 days and I am already seeing improvement for the first time in 8 months. You have my gratitude. 🙏🏼

Raw carrots, and in particular the raw carrot salad with vinegar and salt, (see Dr. Ray Peat carrot salad) has completely transformed my digestion! I have experimented with many ways of getting raw carrot into my diet including adding shredded carrot to no-bake cookies.

It doesn't matter how you get them into your diet, just eat those raw

[cindymcfarland]

Thank you for clarifying the sugar content issue of carrots. I've been avoiding them but will now embrace them. Keep up the excellent videos!

[pondgazer]

Wow; I didn't realize this at all. I put a whole raw organic carrot in my lunch salad every day - just because I like the color! Who knew it would actually have all these benefits! Thank you Dr. Berg!!

[Detroitstarlight]

I started growing carrots in containers a few years ago, wow, homegrown fresh carrots are amazing! I use several 5 gallon cloth grow bags and each one gets a different variety . It’s also allowed me to try varieties not sold in grocery stores.

Was just thinking yesterday about making some spring rolls using shrimp, cabbage (green and purple), and carrots. Love that these foods are so healthy!
