Dosage and Administration of Carrot.:

To be eaten either raw or cooked. Carrots are often used in salads and as relishes and are served as cooked vegetables and in stews and soups.

 Scrub carrots just before cooking, and peel if desired. To preserve their natural sugars and sweet flavor, cook carrots in as little liquid as possible. Steaming and baking both help seal in the flavor. For a vegetable roast, cut carrots on the diagonal, combine with diced turnips, potatoes, and onions, toss with olive oil and rosemary, and bake at 200 C until tender.

 The carrot roots of well-grown plants are crisp, sweet and juicy. They are very nice raw and are also cooked as a vegetable or added to soups, stews, etc. The grated root is a tasty addition to the salad bowl.
 

 The juice can be extracted from the root and used as a health-promoting drink.
 The root is sometimes ground into a powder and used in making cakes, bread, etc.
 The leaves can be eaten raw or cooked. With a very strong flavor, they can be added in small quantities to mixed salads. They are sometimes used as a flavoring in soups.
 An essential oil from the seed is used as a food flavoring.

 Fresh carrots can be found in the produce section of health food stores and supermarkets. Carrots with the greens still attached have the sweetest flavor; make sure the greens are crisp and fresh looking. Look for firm, bright carrots, without cracks on the sides or sprouts where the green tops have been removed. Remove the greens about 4 cm above the carrots and store, tightly sealed, for three to five days.
