Curry's health benefits are derived from their spice rich ingredients. Turmeric, curry's main ingredient is recognized by its yellow color. A member of  the ginger family, turmeric has long been associated with its healing  properties. Used as a common antiseptic in India, turmeric is used  regularly to treat damaged skin such as cuts or burns. It's even being  touted as a possible cure for Alzheimer's disease. Carrot contains a very complete nutrition to provide  our body the essential enzymes, vitamins and minerals.
