A member asked:
What can cause people to turn yellow? i know jaundice can but are they any other causes? is it always related to the liver?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always liver. : Also hypervitaminosis A can cause yellow skin, seen in people that consume carrots in excess for a long time. Contact with a yellow dye, or items that will color the skin yellow after contact are also a consideration. If this is you, be seen by your De. To determine the exact cause.
