Nutritional values
The red pigments from beet and purple carrots provide cell protection: they can neutralize free radicals and inhibit inflammation.
The fat-soluble vitamin A from carrots can only be absorbed by the body in combination with fat; therefore, some oil is recommended here. The vitamin is important for healthy and smooth skin.
