royalty 10 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Hey i am clear but now another problem i have is that people notice my face is yellow. I am 100% sure that its because of my huge vegetable/beta caroten intake. Also i take multivitamins which has twice as much as i need for one day. I've cut down on the food and stopped taking the multivitamin to try to stop it since i think its annoying when people ask me about my yellow face. I am just wondeirng how long will this discoloration long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Share Posted January 11, 2013 Anyone ever watch that Magic School Bus episode where Arnold turns orange? Actually, this also happened to an aunt of mine. Too many carrots. I know that the epidermis replaces itself about every five weeks. The yellowness is not the result of scarring, or anything permanent, so it should fade within that timeframe.

Ind1g0 42 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Eek. How yellow is it? Orange could indicate too much beta carotene...yellow could be a sign of jaundice, which could indicate a problem with your liver. Cut down on the vitamins if you're eating a balanced diet....this issue, if its really noticeable, is not a good thing at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
