Carrots prevents breast cancer.
Scientists in the laboratory have failed to prove that the carrot is a product that contains a gene capable of preventing the development of breast cancer.
The study was performed at Nantes carrots, which is characterized by bright orange color. In the result it found a high concentration of vitamin A and beta-carotene, and genes that had a relationship with a pigment, in addition to the improvement of visual acuity can improve immunity, improve the condition of the skin. And in 2016, scientists were able to identify that carrots can prevent the development of cancer.
If the experiments will continue successfully, in a short time, the carrots will be included in the list of drugs.
For experiments were selected 1500 women who were divided into two groups: those who were healthy and those who already had the disease. In the group who regularly consumed carrots cases of breast cancer significantly decreased and occurs only in 40-60% of cases.
It is also worth to note that vegetable can only affect cancer – estrogen-negative, and the rest has no effect. Despite such a startling discovery, scientists are still against the regular use of supplements with beta carotene, an excess can have a negative impact on health.
