A recent study found that an antifungal agent in carrots could help regulate blood sugar. Scientists at the University of Southern Denmark discovered that these compounds in carrots were linked to better microbiome composition in the gut. “Everything we eat affects the composition of gut bacteria,” Morten Kobæk Larsen explained. “Consuming carrots shifts the gut bacteria towards a healthier balance, benefiting mice with type 2 diabetes.” Trials in humans are needed to see if the effects can be replicated in people with type 2 diabetes.
