Carrots can't be eaten with vinegar. It is said that vinegar destroys carotene. What is the principle?

carrots should not be eaten with sour food such as vinegar, otherwise, the vitamin A in carrots will be destroyed.

Carrots contain a lot of carotene.

After being ingested in the digestive organs of human body,

they can be turned into vitamin A..

Vitamin A can maintain the health of eyes and skin.

People with rough skin and night blindness

are short of vitamin A.. But vinegar can be used when carrots are cold-mixed.

The acetic acid contained in vinegar is a weak acid,

and its concentration is very low,

which will not destroy carotene.
