Is carrot juice healthy?

It helps boost your immunity.

Carrot juice provides a large amount of immune-supporting vitamin C. Our bodies cannot synthesize vitamin C on their own, so we must get the nutrients from food or supplements.

It stops you from eating unhealthy snacks.

When you feel hungry between meals, drinking a glass of carrot juice can help reduce this need by making you feel satisfied. One cup of carrot juice provides a surprising amount of protein—more than two grams. It also provides about two grams of fiber. Both nutrients help keep you fuller longer.

It helps enhance your vision.

When you think of the health benefits of eating carrots, the first thing that probably comes to mind is their ability to enhance vision. It's true: Their vitamin content can be a huge boost to vision. Carrots contain vitamin A, which is not only a powerful antioxidant but also one of the most important nutrients for the eyes. Vitamin A deficiency can lead to night blindness and Bitot's spots.

It improves your skin.

Drinking water can significantly improve the appearance of your skin, as can carrot juice. It can also help wounds heal faster. In addition to vitamin A, carrot juice is rich in another important immune-boosting antioxidant: vitamin C. Vitamin C is important for wound healing because it is required for the production of collagen, the main protein found in our skin and connective tissue. As an antioxidant, it can also help prevent cell damage in the body.

It can help control your blood pressure.

If high blood pressure is a problem, drinking a glass of carrot juice may be a simple way to help control it. Potassium is a mineral that is important in helping to counteract the effects of sodium and control blood pressure levels. Because carrot juice is a great source of potassium, providing 689 mg of potassium per cup, it has many benefits for your body.

It can help reduce bloating.

Carrot juice can help reduce bloating in two different ways: reducing the amount of gas in your belly and helping you urinate more regularly.

Great way to lower cholesterol.

Carrot juice isn't the only thing that can help you control your blood pressure. It can also help lower cholesterol levels. Carrot juice contains high amounts of potassium, which has been shown to have an inverse relationship with cholesterol. A high-potassium diet often lowers cholesterol.

Don’t have a juicer but want to reap the benefits of carrot juice? Choose from these healthy carrot juice products. Be sure to choose vegetable juices that are made from 100% carrot juice and contain no added sugar, which can lead to hunger and cravings.

How much carrot juice should I drink every day?

Drinking too much carrot juice can cause carotenemia, a temporary condition in which the skin takes on a yellowish tint due to excess beta-carotene in the blood. To enjoy the benefits of carrot juice without consuming too much vitamin A or beta-carotene, drink no more than a half cup or 4 ounces per day.

Best Vegan Carrot Juice Recipes

For many of us, drinking carrot juice regularly is a great way to add extra nutrients to our diet. It can also be a very tasty addition. To prove it, here are some of our favorite vegan carrot juice recipes.

1 apple, carrot, celery and kale juice

Not satisfied with the carrot itself? Boost the nutritional value (and deliciousness) of your juice by adding some extra fruits and veggies! Perfect for drinking from a chilled glass during the summer, this super refreshing juice also contains a blend of apple, celery and kale.

2Jamaican Vegan Carrot Juice

Sometimes called Jamaican Carrot Punch, this Caribbean recipe usually calls for condensed milk, but since the ingredient is not vegan, this recipe uses dairy-free condensed milk. For a traditional spicy-sweet flavor, the carrots are also mixed with nutmeg, cinnamon and ground vanilla.

3 carrot, apple and ginger juice

Ginger and carrots are a wonderful pairing – they go well together in cakes, soups and, yes, you guessed it, juices. Apples can also be added for extra vitamins, fiber, minerals, antioxidants, and of course a more delicious flavor.

4 Creamy Carrot Cake Smoothie

If you prefer something a little thicker, consider opting for a carrot smoothie instead of juice. This particular recipe is super sweet and super creamy thanks to the addition of dates, bananas, skim milk, and vanilla protein powder.

5 Indian style carrot juice

Just like carrots, turmeric is a very healthy addition to the diet because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Get the benefits (and delicious taste) of both by combining the two in this Indian-style carrot juice recipe.
