Carrot/Drug Interactions:- Antidiabetic agentsAntidiabetic agents: Based on a clinical trial of 10 healthy approximately 40 year-old males, consumption of 200g of processed and cooked carrots may significantly lower glucose and insulin/C-peptide responses (6).
- AntidiarrhealsAntidiarrheals: Based on a clinical trial in children, a carrot-rice based rehydration solution may significantly decrease the duration of diarrhea, mean fecal output, and mean fluid intake in children (10).
- AntioxidantsAntioxidants: Based on several clinical trials, ingestion of carrot juice may slightly increase antioxidant capacity and significantly reduce oxidative base damage (21; 22; 23; 24).
- EstrogensEstrogens: Based on an in vitro study, active extracts/fractions/compounds from Daucus carota may have estrogenic activity (7).
- LaxativesLaxatives: Based on clinical trials, consumption of carrots may increase fecal bulking/weight and dry matter (9; 4; 10).
- Oral drugsOral drugs: Based on clinical trials, consumption of carrots may increase gastrointestinal transit time (9; 4).
