Thanks to our special method of drying and processing our produce, Carrot Essence is nutritionally optimal, offering an impressive 138 percent of the RDA of vitamin A and 43 percent of the recommended amount of vitamin C per serving.

What makes Carrot Essence a better option than juicing?

We love juicing, but we’re also really busy, and we bet you are too. It’s hard to maintain a modern lifestyle and still keep up with creating homemade juices and seeing to the subsequent cleanup. You could stop by a juice bar every day, but that gets pricey. Carrot Essence is an affordable, effective alternative that’s not messy or expensive, and we think that’s a major win.

What’s the nutritional difference between Carrot Essence and whole carrots?

Whole carrots include lots of indigestible fiber. While this fiber is good for gut motility and regulating blood sugar, it also traps some nutrients and prevents them from being absorbed. The fiber in whole carrots prevents all but 1 percent of the available beta-carotene from being absorbed, while juicing boosts availability to a staggering 100 percent.

How are the carrots in Carrot Essence sourced and prepared?

We use the very best USDA Certified Organic carrots grown to peak ripeness and picked while nutritionally optimal. The carrots are then washed, juiced and spray-dried in a special temperature-controlled environment for an end product that’s stable and remarkably potent.

What’s in Green Foods Carrot Essence besides carrots?

The only ingredients in Carrot Essence are organic carrot juice powder, organic maltodextrin (derived from tapioca) and organic acerola berry juice powder. Carrot Essence contains absolutely no added sugar, salt, fillers, colorings, animal products, years, soy, gluten, yeast, corn or GMOs.

Can I mix Carrot Essence into my pasta sauce or vegetable soup?

Part of what makes Carrot Essence so powerful is the presence of active enzymes. Hot liquids will neutralize those enzymes, so we recommend only consuming Carrot Essence alongside cold or room-temperature liquids.

Green Foods Carrot Essence Is:

• Full of more vitamin C than oranges
• Packed with powerful antioxidants
• Certified organic
• More nutritionally available than whole carrots
• Useful for promoting eye health, improving skin conditions, boosting your immune system and supporting liver wellness
• Delicious, convenient and less messy than juicing

How to Use Green Foods Carrot Essence

Just one 5-gram serving (about two teaspoons) offers the same nutrition as two medium-sized fresh carrots. Mix your serving of Carrot Essence with 6 ounces of water to enjoy a nutritionally advantageous beverage that’s slightly sweet and refreshingly delicious. While we don’t recommend adding Carrot Essence to warm liquids (the heat neutralizes the active enzymes), almost any cold liquid works. Try Carrot Essence in your smoothie or green juice, or mix it with Beet Essence or Green Magma for an exponentially healthy drink.

Carrot Essence May Help:

• Improve Immunity: Beta carotene may improve immune function, enabling your body to better ward off sickness so you stay healthy and happy. These same immune-boosting nutrients help you keep your teeth and gums in great shape by acting in an antibacterial fashion and scrubbing away bacteria in your mouth as well as in your gut.

• Fight Free Radicals: Antioxidants prevent free radicals from damaging your body, which may lower your risk of developing cancer and heart conditions.

• Maintain Peak Cognitive Condition: Oxidative stress — another side effect of unchecked free radicals — has been linked to cognitive decline in men. One study found that long-term beta carotene consumption can make a significant difference in how quickly cognitive abilities decline with age.

• Protect Eye Health: Vitamin A aids in night vision, while beta carotene is believed to offer protection against cataracts and macular degeneration.

• Contribute to Healthy Skin: Antioxidants mitigate sun damage and promote hydration to help your skin, nails and hair stay soft, supple and evenly pigmented.

• Balance Acidity: Many people believe a body with an off-kilter acid/alkaline ratio is ripe for infection, inflammation and disease. Carrots are naturally alkaline, which may help balance blood acidity and support optimal body function.
