Carrots and all their faces

Updated: Apr 9

Everyone sees the carrot for what it is, especially the horse who has it waved in front of his face. It can be reward and its role in balanced diet is priceless.

Carrots are rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin A, C, B, E, H, K and PP. The most important minerals include calcium, potassium, sodium, iron, copper, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc and cobalt and many others, whose names can only be remembered by dietitian ;)) To sum up all its super powers their consumption are related to lower risk of developing heart disease, cancer and neurodegerative diseases. However it is worth knowing that boiled carrots, which have certainly been on your table in company with peas for many times, are poisonous for diabetics because cooking them releases cosmic amounts of sugar. Beta-carotene is also famous for supporting tanning, allowing you to enjoy your summer tan longer and giving your skin a beautiful shade. Additionally, it prevents the formation of discolorations, unsightly stains and reduces the risk of sunburn. How it relates to a horse - well it has nothing to do with it, but to satisfy our mini vain human needs. However provitamin A, which not only supports the functioning of the visual organs, but also protects against heart disease, atherosclerosis and the development of cancer, undoubtedly plays the most important roles in a horse's life.

Thanks to these ingredient, your horse will enjoy shiny fur and healthy skin. However it is worth remembering (as in the case of cooked carrots) that horse may have carrot allergy, so if your horse snorts, sneezes and snot, it is worth checking in blood tests whether the carrot instead of reward has become a punishment.

In human vege diet carrots gracefully replace all forms of sausages and other meat offal, so it is worth doing research with its alternative versions, so that the raw version does not quickly become boring in you diet.
