Consuming raw carrots regularly or often helps in improving the health of the eyes, reduces stress and builds immunity.

We juice carrots sometimes when the kids ask for it or when I end up having too many carrots in the fridge. The taste of the juice depends on the variety & age of carrots used.

Young and tender carrots are best for juicing since the aroma is mild and taste delicious.

Benefits

Fresh juice is alkaline and can help folks with digestive or acidity problems. Carrots can be juiced alone or with some citrus fruit like orange, grapefruit, tangerines or lemons.

Not all fruits go well with carrot, so we mostly make them with sweet oranges, pears or lemon.

This juice is an immune booster and is great to keep away cold and flu. Citrus fruits, ginger, honey, turmeric and basil are some of the ingredients you can try to add to this drink.

Even wheatgrass, orange, carrots make a great combo. You can also make a carrot smoothie the same way. Just use as much fruits or tender coconut water as needed while you blend. You can also add a banana to it.

If you prefer chilled juice, always chill the ingredients first and then use. Do not chill after they are juiced as there will be loss of nutrients due to oxidization. The taste too alters.
