4. Carrot
Did your mom tell you carrots are good for your vision? Well, she wasn’t just trying to get you to eat your veggies after all. It turns out that carrots come packed with vitamins, minerals, and a potent polyphenol antioxidant called, “beta-carotene,” and this antioxidant is what gives carrots their distinctive orange color.
Beta-carotene decreases the risk of developing macular degeneration, and the additional vitamin A found in carrots protects the retina and cornea from damage. Adding carrots to your juice can reduce the symptoms of dry eyes and skin, signaling the body to produce more collagen, a vital protein responsible for skin and bone health.
Adding a carrot to your beet juice doesn’t provide the same sweetness as apple juice, so its suitable for people that want to add a little zest to their beets in the morning. Carrots don’t overpower the flavor, and they give it a touch of sweetness to cut the sharp taste of the beetroot.
