Proper identification is essential to make  sure this plant is not mistaken for one of the deadly poisonous members of the  carrot family (Umbelliferae). <\/p>\n<p> Carrot poultice:&nbsp;  boil carrots until soft, or they can be used raw.&nbsp; Mash to a pulp, add some vegetable oil to  keep them from hardening, spread on a cloth, and apply. &nbsp;Excellent for offensive sores.&nbsp; Garden carrots, grated raw, and applied as a  poultice, will cleanse old sores and ulcers.&nbsp;  Follow with an application of healing lotion or a wash of golden seal  and myrrh solution.<\/p>\n<p> Daucus, from the Greek daukos, or daukon&#8211;a kind of  carrot&#8211;a genus of about 60 species of annual, biennial or perennial herbs  mainly of Mediterranean and African distribution, belonging to the Umbelliferae  family.&nbsp; The biennial Wild carrot is a  naturalized herb in America,  found growing in old meadows and pastures.&nbsp;  It cannot be transplanted into the garden to produce an edible  product.&nbsp; It taints milk with a bitter  flavor if cattle eat too much of it, although it is not poisonous.<\/p>\n<p> Eating a raw carrot a day can reduce the risk of  getting certain forms of cancer.&nbsp; Cancer  researchers have found that eating 12,500 IU of beta carotene, a plant form of  vitamin A, daily (there are 13,500 IU in one raw carrot) can prevent cancers of  the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and prostate.&nbsp; Numerous studies worldwide, including some  sponsored by the National Cancer Institute, confirm that people who eat diets  high in carrots and other foods rich in carotene are less likely to develop  certain forms of cancer than those who don&rsquo;t.&nbsp;  The studies show that even people exposed to specific carcinogens such  as tobacco and ultraviolet light could reduce their risk of cancer by eating  more carotene.<\/p>\n<p> The RDA (recommended daily allowance) for carotene  is 5,000 IU, but cancer researchers suggest that in order to dramatically  decrease the cancer risk, 12,500 IU of carotene is sufficient. Also, carrots  are excellent for the eyes and helps counteract night blindness and weak  vision.<\/p>\n<p> Three large raw carrots a day may also lower blood  cholesterol levels, thus reducing the risk of developing coronary artery  disease, the leading cause of heart attack.<\/p>\n<p> The fresher the product the better; from the minute  the carrot is picked, the carotene begins to lose its potency.&nbsp; Try to buy loose carrots from the grocer and  avoid the stuff that is sold in plastic bags.&nbsp;  Use them as quickly as possible.<br \/>\n  <a href=\"#top\"><font size=\"-1\">Back to Top<\/font><\/a><\/p>\n<hr size=3 width=80% COLOR=\"#004040\" align=\"center\">\n<h3><a name=\"Uses\">Uses<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Carrot soup makes an effective remedy for diarrhea and  is easily digestible for those suffering from stomach and intestinal problems.&nbsp; Carrot is useful for preventing putrefaction  in the intestine and for gastro-intestinal catarrh.<\/p>\n<p> The carrot&rsquo;s content of potassium salts accounts  for its diuretic action, and it contains an essential oil that is effective  against roundworms (east 2-3 raw carrots a day for several days).&nbsp; Take carrot juice for stomach acidity and  heartburn.&nbsp; Carrots are good for the  eyes; specifically, their carotene content provides the material for the body  to make vitamin A, which is important for proper vision and night vision.&nbsp; An infusion or decoction of the seeds of wild  carrot can be used for flatulence, as a diuretic, and to promote the onset of  menstruation.<\/p>\n<p> It treats fluid retention, chronic urinary tract  problems, gout, jaundice, dysentery, cystitis, rheumatism, hiccoughs, chronic  coughs, gall stones.&nbsp; Science confirms  its bactericidal, diuretic, hypotensive, worm-expelling properties.&nbsp; Culpeper claims that carrot taken in wine, or  boiled in wine, helps conception.<\/p>\n<p> Grated carrots make an excellent poultice for  ulcers, abscesses, carbuncles, scrofulous and cancerous sores, and bad wounds.&nbsp; The seeds of carrots, ground to powder and  taken as a tea, relieve colic and increase the flow of urine.&nbsp; The powder may also be placed in capsules and  1 or 2 taken daily with a glass of water.&nbsp;  Carrot blossoms, used as a tea, are a most effective remedy for dropsy  and will very often cure when all other means have failed.<\/p>\n<p> Carrot shavings or juice with a little lemon juice can  be applied directly to the face like a facial mask.&nbsp; Best for oily skin.<br \/>\n  <a href=\"#top\"><font size=\"-1\">Back to Top<\/font><\/a><\/p>\n<hr size=3 width=80% COLOR=\"#004040\" align=\"center\">\n<h3><a name=\"Dosages\">Formulas or Dosages<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Infusion or decoction: use 1 tbsp. wild carrot seeds  with 1 cup water.&nbsp;
