hight karoten?
Question:
Answers:
Carotenemia is a clinical condition characterized by yellow pigmentation of the skin and increased beta-carotene levels in the blood. In most cases, the condition follows prolonged and excessive consumption of carotene-rich foods, such as carrots, squash, and sweet potatoes. However, carotenemia has been associated with more serious conditions, such as diabetes mellitus and hypothyroidism. Carotene was first isolated in the yellow pigment of carrots.
Diet-induced carotenemia is a benign condition that is not associated with complications. Discoloration of the skin will remit with dietary modification.
Stay away from carotene-rich foods.
