Slash your risk of cancer & heart disease with carrots!
Heart-Healthy Carrots
Research at Northwestern University has shown that middle-aged men who ate at least one carrot a day had a 37 per cent lower risk of death from cancer than men who did not.

A recent study at Rutgers University indicates that carrots and other foods rich in beta-carotene may significantly reduce the risk of heart disease. Because you drink the entire carrot, Vita-Mix carrot juice is an especially good source of beta-carotene and alpha-carotene. Both are super-powerful antioxidants.

Vita-Mix 5200According to Lancaster Laboratories, the health benefits from Vita-Mix carrot juice is easily twice that of extracted juice. Whole food juice also gives you six times the fiber, which makes the juice more satisfying. Fiber also counteracts the high concentration of natural sugars in carrots and prevents a rise in blood sugar levels. Taste and see for yourself!
