Carrot Fiber Boosts Gut Health and Strengthens Immune Defenses
- Carrot fiber contains a unique compound called RG-I that works in small amounts to strengthen your gut and immune defenses
- Even 300 to 500 milligrams daily of RG-I was shown to boost beneficial bacteria, improve stool consistency, and activate immune cells that fight viruses
- Carrot fiber helps your gut microbes produce protective compounds that lower inflammation and shield organs like your brain, heart, and liver from damage
- At the same time, it reduces harmful byproducts linked to asthma, fatty liver disease, and cancer risk, shifting your microbiome toward a healthier balance
- Preparing your gut first by calming inflammation makes carrot fiber even more effective, as it then feeds butyrate-producing bacteria that repair and protect your intestinal lining
