White Satin Carrot

Description

White carrots reduce the risk of lung, breast and colon cancer and are good for digestion. The antioxidants and phytochemicals in white carrots may also help with blood sugar regulation, delay the effects of ageing, and improve immune function. The white appearance of carrots, often called “white blush,” is simply how they look when they get dehydrated. Carrots are a root vegetable, so they hold a lot of water that would normally nourish the plant as it grows. After the vegetable is picked, it naturally gives off the moisture to the atmosphere around it. Generally speaking, however, red carrots have a flavor similar to that of orange carrots, while white carrots are said to taste less earthy than orange carrots and sweeter than red and purple carrots.
