7. Carrots aren’t just good for the eyes — add them to your diet to help prevent cancer.
Our parents always told us to eat our vegetables, especially carrots, since they are suitable for our eyes. Furthermore, although they may not help us see in the dark, although that would be pretty amazing, there is suggestive evidence that carrots can help lower the risk of cervical cancer. So if you are a woman who is at higher risk of getting cervical cancer, it may be a good idea to start adding carrots to your daily diet if you have not done so already.

Carrots are high in vitamin A and antioxidants and high in fiber, which can help keep you regular. Keeping regular in the bathroom can help minimize the risk of bowel cancer, as well. To make sure that you are eating enough carrots, there are plenty of ways you can sneak them into your diet. Try eating them as snacks, in a stick form dipped in hummus, or a low-fat dressing or dip. You can also add them to any dish, or like broccoli. They go well as a side dish steamed with your favorite seasoning, too.
