In recent years, consumer interest in healthy eating and functional foods has increased significantly.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to the Telegram channel “Blog about health”.
One of the most popular vegetables, proven to be beneficial for gut health is carrots. Research shows that regular consumption of carrots has an anti-inflammatory effect, improves digestion and helps protect the body from various diseases, including cancer.
Carrots are rich in fiber, which plays a key role in improving digestion. Fiber helps normalize bowel function, prevents constipation and helps fight irritable bowel syndrome.
In addition, carrots contain B vitamins, as well as vitamins C and A, which strengthen the immune system, promoting the growth of white blood cells and increasing the body's resistance to infections and cancer.
For business, this opens up wide opportunities in the healthy food and functional food segments. Manufacturers can develop lines of ready-made carrot salads, juices and smoothies enriched with additional healthy ingredients.
