Mon, December 10, 2007 - 10:30 AMThe famous psychic Edgar Cayce said that it was a shame most people threw away the carrot tops, as that's where he said a lot of the nutrients were. He said to include a little of the green portion if possible. I think this was specifically supposed to be helpful for bad eyesight. -
