In recent years, consumption of carrot and its related products has increased steadily due to the recognition of antioxidant and anticancer activities of β-carotene in carrot. The carrot is widely utilized for making salads, curries, sweets, soups, juices, flakes and pickles but carrot supplemented baby foods are hardly developed. Beetischolar_main, a good source of protein, dietary fibre, important vitamins and minerals, is rich in carbohydrates, free from cholesterol, very low in fat and rich in betaine (phytofactor).

Abstract


In recent years, consumption of carrot and its related products has increased steadily due to the recognition of antioxidant and anticancer activities of β-carotene in carrot. The carrot is widely utilized for making salads, curries, sweets, soups, juices, flakes and pickles but carrot supplemented baby foods are hardly developed. Beetischolar_main, a good source of protein, dietary fibre, important vitamins and minerals, is rich in carbohydrates, free from cholesterol, very low in fat and rich in betaine (phytofactor).
