when my son started to eat solid food my maid put carrot in to his food all the time. So when he got sick one time and went to aee a doctor, the doctor check his palm and said he's yellow. Asked us if we gave my son everyday, we said yes. The doctor told us the carotene in carrot made his skin looked yellow. But the yellowish skin will disappear when we stop give yellow or orange vegetable and fruit to him everyday. Moreover yellowish skin is most obvious in asian people.
