Eat carrots to prevent arthritis

The latest study found that catechins help prevent arthritis.

Research confirms that the frequent intake of carotenoids in the diet can play an anti-inflammatory role. The average daily intake of carotenoids in arthritis patients is 20% to 40% lower than normal people. Those who normally take more carotenoids are about half as likely to suffer from arthritis as those who eat less.

Carotenoids commonly found in foods are as many as 50 to 60, such as β-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. In yellow, red fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, mangoes, oranges, pineapple, etc. Daily intake of diets containing carotenoids, such as carrots that have been cooked by simmering, stewing, etc. (because this can make fat-soluble beta-carotene released), or drinking orange juice, are a good choice .
