Carrots serve us much more than to take care of our skin or our vision. For its part, we can benefit from garlic in another more pleasant way than consuming it on an empty stomach in the morning.

We suggest you leave the most traditional and combine both. You will get a natural drink with a refreshing and intense flavor. In addition, it can be as effective as any vitamin tablet that we buy in pharmacies.

Carrots, a gift full of nutrients

Carrots are very rich in carotenoids. It is what gives it that attractive orange tone.

Something as simple as drinking a glass of its juice a day would offer us a high content of  antioxidants, vitamins A, C, K, B8 and B9, pantothenic acid and minerals (potassium, iron, copper and manganese).

  • Another interesting fact is that carrots contain a series of very powerful antibacterial compounds, according to this research from the University of Coimbra.
  • If they raise our defenses and offer us energy, it is not only because of vitamin C: all the bioelements of this tuber stimulate the activity of white blood cells to take care of and strengthen our defenses against external agents. This is stated in this study by Parmar University.
  • This juice is revitalizing, digestive and therapeutic. According to this study by the University of Queensland, it could also be indicated for people with diabetes since, thanks to the carotenoids, it helps us regulate the level of sugar in the blood.
  • This type of antioxidants regulate the amount of insulin and glucose that our body metabolizes to achieve balance.

Defenses

Garlic protects us from various diseases

Garlic protects our immune system and is anti-inflammatory, as stated in this study by the National Institute of Psychiatry, “Ramón de la Fuente”. Among its compounds are enzymes such as allicin.

  • This sulfur compound helps us enhance  the metabolism of iron in our body, as suggested by this research from the Universidad de la Sierra Sur.
  • It does this by stimulating the production of ferroportin. It is a type of protein that helps cells store iron for when they need it.
  • All this will undoubtedly give us a good level of energy and strength for these days of decline.
  • Also, an interesting aspect about garlic is its flavonoids and its sulfur content. If we get used to taking two cloves of garlic a day, we will offer our body an adequate supply of this mineral.

Garlic, in turn, is very rich in the following elements:

  • Vitamins (C and group B)
  • Minerals (manganese, copper, selenium, phosphorus, zinc, iron)
  • Protein

Here we explain how to prepare this carrot and garlic based remedy to increase your energy and combat fatigue.
