Tiny Ginseng
Exhausted? Raw carrots, and especially carrot juice have a mild pungency that is stimulating & exhilarating. They increase your energy (prana or Qi), which has earned carrots the title 'tiny ginseng' and the 'king of juices'.
Purify Your Blood
Carrot's cool nature and mild bitter taste acts purifies the blood. Strongly alkalizing, carrot has a cool and relaxing effect on the eyes. Beta-carotene, which gives carrots their bright orange color, is metabolized into vitamin A in the presence of bile salts in the small intestine. Vitamin A pacifies Pitta, nourishes the liver, and purifies the blood. These actions improve vision, complexion of the skin, and generally reduce inflammation. Carrot helps make the skin noticeably softer, smoother, and firmer. Carrots increase the quality of the breast milk. During pregnancy carrots reduce the risk of jaundice and enhance baby's complexion.
The blood purifying aspects together with carrot's sweetness make it an excellent blood and liver tonic. Carrots are ideal for liver deficiency, especially useful in the late summer dry season. To restore the liver, boil 4 carrots with 2 tbsp coconut butter.
Other Benefits

One cup of carrot juice daily in the morning can help eliminate pinworms and roundworms in children. They are rich in silicon and potassium. Too much of the concentrated juice can turn your skin orange.
