Sweet Citrus Carrot Salad

Body Benefits

Carrot salad is a popular dish mainly for its health benefits but that doesn’t mean it can’t be delicious too! Packed with fiber to help eliminate waste in the body, antioxidants like beta carotene that fight free radicals, and vitamin c to support the immune system, carrots really are a super food. Carrots are also especially helpful in eliminating excess estrogen in the body which can improve PMS symptoms and support your body’s overall hormonal health.
