A member asked:
Can doing a juice fast for 3 days cause jaundice? or could there be an underlying problem with the liver?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not the fast: A 3 day juice fast would not cause jaundice. If you are actually jaundiced you need to be evaluated for biliary tract disease or primary liver disorder. Call you doctor, don't drink alcohol, and avoid Acetaminophen (tylenol).Good luck.
