Benefit Colitis and Inflammatory Intestinal Conditions

Chronic inflammation in all or part of the digestive system is described as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Purple carrots have been shown in animal and test-tube research to improve some inflammatory bowel disorders, such as ulcerative colitis.

One study found that feeding animals with colitis purple carrot powder lowered blood levels of pro-inflammatory substances such as tumor necrosis factor- and interleukin-6. A test-tube investigation on the benefits of purple carrot extract on decreasing intestinal cell inflammation yielded comparable results. According to the findings of these studies, the anti-inflammatory benefits of purple carrots are most likely owing to their high anthocyanin antioxidant concentration.
