Interestingly, different colors  of carrots might have slightly  

different nutritional values, according to  an article published in "Plants" in 2023: 

Purple or black carrots are rich in  anthocyanins, providing antioxidant  

properties and potentially playing a role in  heart health and anti-inflammatory responses. 

Orange carrots are notably high  in β-carotene and α-carotene,  

which are vital provitamin A  carotenoids essential for vision,  

immune function, and skin health. The red carrots bring a wealth of lycopene,  

known for its potential to reduce the risk  of certain cancers and promote heart health. 

Yellow carrots predominantly accumulate  xanthophylls, particularly lutein,  

which is associated with eye health and may reduce  the risk of age-related macular degeneration. 

Lastly, white carrots have substantially lower  pigment levels, providing less of the mentioned  

phytonutrients, but still offering  fiber and other beneficial compounds.
