Hello everyone
From what I've read, it seems that the fiber in carrots can't be over-chewed and shouldn't be cut in certain way. I don't remember which thread, but after reading the suggestions in that thread, I stopped shredding the carrots(before I stopped consuming carrots due to the carotene content) and started using a potato peeler to cut them lengthwise. If the fiber in carrots shouldn't be excessively chewed, would it cause discomfort in the stomach, therefore increase serotonin? Or is some abrasion necessary to remove bacteria/plaque on the lining(if that's a thing)? Unlike carrots, cooked mushrooms feel soft.
