Thats a very interesting website actually, filled with all sort of interesting info about carrots.. Did you know:
Quote:
An experiment carried out at the Institute of Food Research in 2009 showed that the body can absorb about 5% of the beta carotene from a single carrot, whereas when it is boiled, the carrot released 60% and blended and then boiled a whopping 90%!!
