It sure is true that carrots are really good for your eyes, they're a great source of beta carotene and Vitamin A. |

It’s mostly an urban myth, Carrots do contain vitamin A which is supposed to be good for sight, skin growth, increasing resistance to infections. However, some research have proven that taking too much beta carotene, found in carrots, actually increases the chances of blindness! The best advice you can have is to stick to a fully balanced diet of vegetables and seeds. Do not focus on one variety… |

No, not really. During WWII the British developed radar to protect against German air attacks. The defenses always knew when and where attacks were occurring and were able to stop the Germans. The British spread rumors that their pilots ate lots of carrots which gave them great vision to spot the enemy to explain hwo they always knew where the Germans were. |

Started off as a myth during WWII but it contains vitamin A and beta carotene, good for eye sight. |

They actually don't do anything for your eyes. It was a myth made during World War II (i think) to confuse Germans as to why the Allied planes could bomb with such precision at night. The Allies promoted carrotts as helping with eye sight to confuse the Germans when it was actually radar that was helping locate their targets. Learned that from a Warplane Museum. I guess it just carried on over the years. |

Well, everyone agrees that they are good for your eyes but no one has really said why. Here's the skinny on it. Carrots help only your night vision, not day time vision. Your eyes have rods and cones and the ones your eyes use for night vision are made more sensitive because of the make up of the carrot. I used to fly airplanes a lot for a corporation, at night, and I could see better because I snacked on raw carrots. I hope that helps. |
