Please consider drinking carrot juice which gives the body Vitamin A, B Vitamins, Vitamin E and many minerals. It is  good for  prenatal health, eyesight, bones and teeth, liver and nails, skin and hair as well as helping in cancer prevention.
Carrot juice reduce the risks of many different types of cancer including skin and breast cancer. The cancer-fighting properties of carrot juice are often thought to be excellent due to the high amounts of beta carotene. Beta carotene changes to Vitamin A in the body.
