Fiber and potassium content can help control high blood pressure. The Indian Heart Association (BHA) encourages people to add less salt or sodium to their diet, while eating foods high in potassium such as carrots.

Potassium helps to relax the arteries, reduce the risk of high blood pressure and other heart problems. The medium carrot provides about 4% of a person's daily requirement of potassium.

Meanwhile, a 2016 review concludes that people with high fiber are more likely to have heart disease than people with low fiber.

Eating more fiber helps lower levels of low-density lipoprotein or "cholesterol" in the blood. What foods can help lower blood pressure?

Benefits of Carrot Immunity and Treatment:
Another antioxidant given to carrots is that vitamin C contributes to the production of collagen. Collagen is a key component of connective tissue and can help heal wounds and keep the body healthy.

Vitamins are also present in the body's cells, helping the body fight infections.

A 2017 study found that healthy antibodies can prevent a variety of diseases, including cancer.

When a person is not sick, the immune system needs to work harder and can lower vitamin C. levels.

Some experts believe that taking vitamin C supplements may increase your immune system when you are under stress. Taking vitamin C, for example, can slightly reduce the severity and duration of the flu.
