Carrot juice can prevent cancer

Unremarkable carrots are not only nutritious foods but also have anti-cancer functions. Discovering the "magic effect" of carrots can effectively regulate the physiological functions of human bodies. It also develops functional foods based on carrot juice. This is a reporter recently learned from the "Carrot Functional Food Research" project appraisal meeting held in Beijing by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The intestine is the largest source of bacteria and endotoxins in the human body. How does the intestinal tract serve as a barrier? For the first time in the world, Chinese scientists have successfully developed intestinal microecological regulators based on carrot juice. The conditioners contain carotenoids, bifidogenic factors, and nucleic acid substances, which lay the material basis for proliferating intestinal probiotics, protecting intestinal mucosa, improving the living environment of bifidobacteria, and reducing oxygen free radical damage.

Rat experiments using carrot juice showed that the activity of diamine oxidase in the rat small intestine was significantly increased, and the production of oxygen free radicals was also significantly inhibited, effectively preventing and controlling endotoxemia and reducing the toxicity of antitumor chemotherapeutics. side effect.
