The government was actually trying to encourage people to grow their own vegetables.
Carrots contain beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is important for maintaining good vision, especially in low light conditions. While eating carrots can help support overall eye health, they won't give you night vision or drastically improve your ability to see in the dark.
Carrots help our eyes by providing vitamins and minerals. They can actually help improve your eyesight and, it is said, they can actually help you see in the dark.
they might but i doubt it parents just say that to encourage kids to eat vegetables (CARROTS).
Eating carrots make you healthy but this is a tale that started in World War 2 by the British. They had developed electronic night vision and radar and wanted the Germans to think that they had great eye site so they came up with this tale.
The simple answer is no.The longer answer is about how the myth came about. In WW2 theBritish were using radar to find enemy airplanes, but to keep radar a secret they told the whole of Britain they were feeding their men carrots. Germany then started feeding their army carrots as well. no they do not help you see in the dark it was a myth in the world war two it was never true at allThe carotine in them is good for your eyesight but it won't make you see in the dark.As a general rule, no. its an ol wives tale, and unless your lacking in essential vitamins you can find in a carrot, it's unlikely to affect you that way._____________________________yes, they dont help you see in the dark, but they do help your visionI would be inclined to say they do, up to a point. Carrots are, as you're probably aware, a source of vitamin A, or retinol. This is then oxidised within the body to produce retinal which, when combined with the protein opsin, forms rhodopsin, or "visual purple". This is the pigment at the back of your eye which breaks down in response to light, triggering a signal in the optic nerve. Out of all of the visual pigments, rhodopsin is the most significant when dealing with the rod cells responsible for sclerotic (night time) vision: so eating carrots would produce more of this pigment, allowing you to see better in the dark. Enjoy.yes because they contain vitamin cTo be honest, no-one can see in the dark because if there is no light, there is no vision. But, carrots contain Vitamin A (also called retinol) which improves your eyesight, and to a certain extent, helps you see in dim light.
Because Jem ate a lot of carrots.
if you eat carrots you can see in the dark.
you can't see it. it just pops up and down
near the exhaust right near the back look in the dark but eat some carrots first help you see better
Carrots provide a great source of Vitamin K, that helps clot your blood and let you see in the dark (better).
Because Jem ate a lot of carrots.
Because it has vitamin A and this is a building block for vision and that a deficiency can cause sight problems. So Vitamin A is vital for sight, and carrots have a lot of vitamin A. But by eating more carrots, it will make you see in the dark better because your vision is better.Like if you drink a lot milk your teeth become stronger so you can bite into harder foods.
