Re: Carrots
Because 1 cup of chopped carrots have 12 total carb grams and only 3 fiber grams. (USDA Nutrient Database)
Granted artichoke are listed on the vegetable list too, but alittle over half of their carbs are from fiber.
Some folks will point out the glycemic index/load of the carrots as being an issue too. But I don't think that's too much of an issue.~Megs~

Re: Carrots
The starch in root crops like carrots breaks down quickly into sugar and thus can give insulin spikes more readily.~Susan
