Carrot fries offer a nutritious alternative to traditional potato fries, providing several health benefits. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, which is essential for maintaining healthy skin, vision, and immune function. They also contain antioxidants, such as vitamins C and K, which contribute to overall well-being by combating oxidative stress and supporting blood clotting. The fiber content in carrots aids in digestion, promotes a feeling of fullness, and may contribute to weight management.
