Missed the best reason carrots are like junk food: they're sweet.

  But they have a lot of fiber which is supposed to be the antidote for sweet.

    Fiber slows digestion, which (according to my limited understanding) mitigates the blood insulin spike which is the main fault of fructose - but I wouldn't really call that mitigation an "antidote".

      I remember that assertion from the "bitter truth" videos. But I don't exactly understand why he says so.
