What nutrients does carrot juice provide?

Carrot juice is made by finely pulverizing the roots to a pulpy suspension, then forcing the liquid though a screen to remove hard pieces.

Carrot juice is a nutritional powerhouse, with over 400% of the RDA for vitamin A. As a source of vitamin C, a glass of this healthy juice also helps fight infection, heal wounds, and boost calcium and iron absorption.

It also ranks high as a source of the other vitamins, especially those of the B complex. Its mineral content is equally rich, and includes calcium, copper, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, chlorine, sulfur, and iron.

Raw carrot juice is rich in potassium, creates an alkaline balance, and works on the entire endocrine glandular system to issue valuable hormones needed by human scalp.

Carrot juice contains 4 times as much phosphoric acid compared to any other food. It is a valuable aid in the improvement of teeth, and bone structure, and it helps to normalize weight.

Carrot juice is an excellent source of beta carotene, the plant parent of vitamin A. The vitamin A content of carrot juice helps to strengthen the eyes. In many cases where defective eyesight was noted--as during the war--the condition was overcome by fortifying the diet with fresh carrot juice.

The alkaline minerals, especially calcium and magnesium, contained in carrot juice help soothe and tone the intestinal walls.

Carrot juice stimulates digestion and has a mild diuretic effect. Carrot juice is also a good source of vitamin B6, which reduces excretion of oxalic acid and helps prevent kidney stones from forming.

The sulphur content of carrots and the chlorine content are the main reason for the remarkable liver cleansing abilities of fresh carrot juice.

Carrot juice is one of the richest sources of vitamin E in carrot. It is very helpful in case of cancer.

The carrot juice’s exceptionally rich supply of carotene and natural phytochemicals boost the immune system, improves eyesight, heal wounds, reduces high blood pressure, cleanses the liver, and improve skin condition.

It also reduces acne, reduces mucus, prevents jaundice, promotes skin protection from sunshine, protects against ulcer and generally prevents the development and reduces the duration of infections, viruses and colds.

Sometimes carrot juice is mixed with other fruit or vegetable juices and/or seasonings to make juice ‘cocktail’.
