RE: Carrots improve your vision... Fact or fiction?

in #health6 years ago

The history behind it is really interesting. I read somewhere that the British government started spreading the carrot/eye connection as propaganda to get people interested in growing their own garden, because it was difficult to import food.

Sort:  

Who knows how it started back then, rumors are hard to track nowadays and even harder when they were historic :) The good thing is, maybe it did make people grow their own gardens, that is always a good thing.
