Nutritional Value
Red baby bunch carrots are high in beta carotene. They contain lycopene, a pigment also found in tomatoes and watermelon. Studies show that lycopene helps prevent heart disease and some cancers including prostate cancer. Purple carrots contain anthocyanins, pigments that act as powerful antioxidants and also help prevent heart disease by slowing blood clotting.
