Have you ever thought that carrots can stave off cancer and can inhibit cancer cell growth or reduce tumor size? If not, then you have to believe me because I am stating a fact. This orange-colored vegetable we often used as small sword is
beneficial and useful. According to the study conducted by the National Cancer Institute, carrots contain a large amount of beta carotene. Beta carotene helps reduce a number of cancers including those that affect the lung, mouth, throat, stomach, intestine, bladder, prostate, and breast.
Researches in the past claimed that
beta carotene can cause cancer, although it's still yet to be proven. In fact, the Danish Institute of Agricultural Sciences (DIAS) declared that falcarinol, a substance found in carrots, is found to reduce the risk of cancer. The institution found out that isolated cancer cells grow more slowly when exposed to falcarinol. However, this substance is a polyacethylen, so it is critical not to cook the carrots.
Since you already know that carrots can cure cancer, you can now get your carrots in your refrigerator. Wash them, and start biting from its tip. Just don't eat too much because your skin might turn orange. Or else, you're not different from an albino.
