Can you eat carrots and shrimp together?

Many friends like to make shrimp meatballs and carrot strips, but are worried about whether carrots and shrimp can be eaten together?In fact, they can be eaten together, but it is best not to eat raw carrots.

People are not very clear.People's habit of eating carrots is to eat raw, cut into strips andServeEat after cutting into slices with other vegetables.But none of these conform to nutritional principles.Because the main nutrients in carrots are beta-carotene, which is in the cell wall of carrots, and the cell wall is composed of cellulose, which the human body cannot directly digest. Only through methods such as chopping, cooking and chewing, the cell wall can be broken, so that beta-carotene can be released and absorbed and utilized by the human body.

Experiments show that if pressure cooking is used when cooking, because it reduces the contact between carrots and air, the preservation rate of beta-carotene can reach up to 97%.Experiments also show that the digestion and absorption rate of beta-carotene in the body is closely related to the amount of oil used when cooking. After cooking with adequate oil, the digestion and absorption rate of beta-carotene in the body can reach 90%.Because beta-carotene is a fat-soluble substance, it only dissolves in oil, not in water.

Although carrots are rich in beta-carotene, to maintain its nutrition and allow it to be truly digested and absorbed by the human body, it is related to our eating and cooking methods.

The scientific and reasonable way to eat is: carrots should be cooked, and the best way to maintain its nutrition is to cut the carrots into chunks and stir-fry with oil.Or cut the carrots into chunks and stir-fry withPork,Beef,Lambetc. in a pressure cooker for 15~20 minutes.
