carrot juice

The juice from carrots, with potential antioxidant and protective activities. Carrot juice, depending on the carrot varieties, may contain nutrients that include the provitamin A carotenoids alpha-carotene and beta-carotene, the non-provitamin A carotenoid lycopene, and the flavonoids anthocyanins, luteolin, quercetin and kaempferol. The antioxidants in carrot juice scavenge free radicals, thereby protecting cells from damage.
