2. Carrot
Carrot is a common vegetable that is crisp, delicious, and nutritious. According to measurements, the carotene content in carrots is 30-40 times higher than that of white radish and other various vegetables. After entering the human body, carotene is converted into abundant vitamin A under the action of a series of enzymes, and then absorbed and utilized by the body, thus compensating for the deficiency of vitamin A. Carotene helps maintain the normal function of skin cell tissue, reduce skin wrinkles, stimulate skin metabolism, and keep the skin moist and delicate. In addition to vitamin A, its signature nutrients such as B vitamins and vitamin C also have the effect of moisturizing the skin and anti-aging. The aromatic smell of carrots is caused by volatile oil, which can promote digestion and has a bactericidal effect.

One liter of fresh milk contains about 1250 milligrams of active calcium, ranking first among many foods, about 101 times that of rice, 75 times that of lean beef, and 110 times that of lean pork. Not only is the content high, but the lactose in it can promote the absorption of calcium by the intestinal wall, with an absorption rate as high as 98%, thereby regulating calcium metabolism in the body, maintaining serum calcium concentration, and promoting bone calcification. Good absorption is particularly crucial for calcium supplementation. Moreover, milk is the food the skin loves most at night.
