Support Night Vision: The Carrot-Ginger Juice Recipe
A classic carrot-ginger juice, built around the most well-known ingredient for eye health.
Carrots have been linked to eye health for generations, and this simple juice pairs them with ginger for a warming, easy-to-make daily drink.
What you'll need
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1/2 inch piece of fresh ginger
- 1/2 cup water
How to make it
- Add the carrots, ginger, and water to a blender or juicer.
- Blend until smooth, then strain if you prefer a smoother juice.
- Drink a small glass once daily.
Why people say it works
Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A — an essential nutrient for the retina and low-light vision. A deficiency in vitamin A is one of the most well-documented causes of poor night vision, which is part of why carrots have such a strong reputation for eye health.
This is a home remedy, not a medical treatment. Very high intakes of vitamin A can be harmful, so this juice is meant as a food-based addition to a normal diet, not a mega-dose supplement.
