An over access of beta carotene in your system can cause the skin to change color, but you would have to be eating a lot of carrots.

yea, if you eat an excessive amount. and that is a lot of carrots, i eat about 3 each day and that is fine.

NOTE: they turn your skin ORANGE not yellow :p

Once again i disagree carrots cannot change the skin color of the human being the carrot cannot put an effection like that on the human body function it isn't strong enough because the carrot can only travel to the digestive system which only destroy the carrot completely
