That's called jaundice bro

>>19028097
No, it’s due to beta-carotenes. I had it when I was very little because I şoved eating raw carrots.

>>19028097
The doctor thought so too but the blood tests say no. carotenemia seems to be the only possible explanation since i ate 2 to 400 grams of this or carrots everyday for years. This AND carrots sometimes too

i'm guessing it's from drinking yellow liquid instead of eating it if you catch my drift down on his hands and knees enjoyer

Switch to eating a a pound of turmeric roots a day
Transition to a Simpsons character

Dr. house told me that if i keep eating like this and add a ton o vitamin C i'll be orange instead.

My dad did a carrot juice fast years ago and turned orange.

>>19028203
Did he have vitamin supplements on top or was he just naturally red before adding the yellow?

>>19028171
so if I can find a way to load beta-carotenes and vC into my gfs diet eventually I'll be able to imagine I'm fucking Mymy?

>>19028091

It's true
Source: boomer aunt that never drank more than a glass of wine at special occasions went crazy and started eating a whole bag of mandarin oranges every day. She only stopped when people started asking her why she looks orange.

>>19028091
Praise the sun!

>Turns out
That was in pilot of House md 20 years ago....

>>19028107
my wife had that too! She grew up crazy poor and one of the only things her family could regularly afford to feed her was baby carrots and peanut butter. When she was 6 she ate so many carrots she turned orange and they took her to the hospital, only to learn that she was perfectly healthy aside from the absurdly high beta carotene levels in her system.

>driving with mom
>she wants a drink and sandwich
>hate drive-throughs and fast food in general but agree to go anyway
>stammer out her order
>hand the wagie girl the money
>OMG YOUR HANDS ARE SO ORANGE WHY IS THAT!?
>taken aback by her brashness and generally have an involuntary half second delay when speaking with women anyway
>can't think of a response
>mom seizes the opportunity to lean over and excitedly explain that I eat a lot of carrots
>another wagie girl pops in the window and demands to see
>bewildered, I simply hold up my hand
>they all laugh at the monkey

Couldn’t even pull an “orange you glad” pun pick up line huh?
Don’t even care how cringe it would be, in that situation you have full reign to goofymaxx

>>19031040
Right?

>>19031110
It happened again in a different setting but I am not witty enough to come up with even a lame line like that.

>>19031001
I feel so sorry for your father

you can eat madder roots and it will turn your teeth and bones red.

>retard doesn't know about carotenemia
>says other people are coping
its time to go to sleep now bud

>>19030942
I always knew in the back of my head but i never thought about other orange foods so when i stopped with the carrots i thought i was fine.
>>19031001
That's how it goes. The people close to you are used to the gradual change and then, one day, somebody else just blurts it out!
>WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU

>>19031394
I am, but it limited my diet even more. Carrots, these and >>19028110 are the cheapest, tastiest and most practical legumes to prepare.

>>19028110
>carrots

op at the doctor worried about his skin color:
"eeeh... what's up doc?"

>>19031468
You'll also never be taller than 5'6"

>>19028091
wait holy shit. I think I have this. my hands have been yellow for a long time (people keep mentioning this in concern) and I eat a fuck ton of carrots. I kept seeing doctors and no one diagnosed it but it looks EXACTLY like the hand in OP picture. thanks OP.

>>19032050
unbelievable kek

>>19032061
as long as your eyes aren't yellow, you're fine

>>19032061
It's not supposed to harm you but i'm weird enough without being colored like a liver failure.

>are my eyes yellow?

>>19032061
Haven't you seen the episode of magic school bus where the kid turns orange from eating too much carrot chips or some shit?

>>19031001
If this is real they were just being friendly. If they hated you they would just grimace and try to get you away ASAP. You need mental help (if this is real)
