A 'carrot' a day, keeps a doctor awayPublished: Tuesday, Dec 25, 2012, 17:33 ISTPlace: ISLAMABAD | Agency: ANI

Carrot can offer prevention against different ailments, say health

experts. The vegetable-cum-fruit contains rich vitamin and mineral

contents, besides other valuable nutrients.

Considering the effectiveness of carrot, doctors and health experts have

declared it "apple" for people with meagre resources, the News

reported.

Dr Mian Iftikhar, a medical specialist, said that carrot, especially its

juice, is better for stomach and gastrointestinal health, which also

solves a variety of digestive problems.

He said carrot is useful in different cases like stomach disorder, peptic

ulcers, gastritis, crohns disease (chronic inflammatory disease affecting

the whole of the alimentary tract), diarrhoea, celiac disease (defective

digestion found in children).

Carrot juice, combined with spinach and a little lemon juice, is very

effective in the treatment of constipation, he added.

The juice cleanses the bowels, he said, and added that this effect could

not be expected soon after taking the juice but within two months, thebowel starts emptying regularly.
