Well it is better to use carrot in moderation. I try to rarely use it. Get some good squashes instead to shred on top of the salad. To see why carrots should be avoided read below...

(exerpt from Jen Swofford's page)
"Tannin binds protein, fights digestion by inhibiting key enzymes involved, and can also render iron and vitamin B12 unavailable. If served in excess, foods high in tannin can damage the liver. Foods that contain relatively large amount of tannin are spinach, carrots, bananas, grapes, lettuce, rhubarb (which is, once again, considered to be toxic to iguanas and should not be offered anyway), and onions."

If you want to learn more about good and bad foods, check out the link and go to the nutrition section.
