Eating carrots help you see in the dark

It is true!  Carrots contain carotene, which the body uses to make vitamin A, which is good for your eyesight – especially for seeing in the dark.

But to clear up any lose ends, it can’t help you see in pitch black!

Around the World where some countries diet is poor and lacking in vitamin A, it can develop into blindness.

We tend to have better diets here and our body produces enough vitamin A, so extra carrots won’t improve our night vision, but will just keep our vitamin level high enough to maintain good eyesight.
