Ode on Beta Carotenes (or the color orange)

I don’t want to sound mean, In fact I’d like everyone to be lean,

So I am here to tout beta-carotene!

I wish my friend Bugs Bunny was here to tell

The colour Orange is oh so swell

It comes in lots of  varieties,  many you’ll know

Carrots,  Apricots, Cantaloupe and the Sweet potato

The two best are Crude Palm Oil and Apricots

As well as potato chips and hot dogs (just kidding, actually they’re not)

Pineapple,  Oranges,  Pumpkins and squash

Very few of these do you need to wash

Not all carotenes come with and orange tint

Some come in yellow, green and red, that’s just a hint

Radish,  spinach,  turnips and beets

Sorry but not all of these are my favorite treats.

Corn, Peppers,  Berries and Bran

Oh my! That’s way cool man!

What are the benefits, you might say

The simple answer is vitamin A

It helps with Skin immunity,  cancer and eyes

So many more they reach the skies

You may not like all these vegetables, this I knew.

But get rid of those processed foods and try a few.

Just A little warning - When eating these things, eat lots of leafy greens

This way you'll stay away from an O.D. of carotenes

You might just find that these fruits and veggies are not so bad

Just a couple everyday and you’ll sure be glad.
