10 carrots is something like 1.5-2 pounds/0.75-1 kg. I can eat a good bit of carrot-ginger soup, but a quart of soup every day for weeks? I think I'd have other health effects before I started glowing orange.
I'm actually surprised it takes so much, because where does that orange tan story comes from?
I've heard it way before the tiktok fad, and it seems to have a base in science, but were there really people who ate that much carotene?
My (adult) brother did. He ate ~2lb of carrots daily for months.
We thought he had jaundice and was having liver failure until my mom asked him about his diet and we realized he was orange, not yellow.
Went from really scary to really funny pretty quickly.
Wow, regarding that "challenging" carrot in-take, I guess your bro's among these people that gladly rise up to the challenge 😁
Got a kid in clinic, about 10 months old at the time, and they gorged on carrot baby food. They are orange still. It has been 3 months.
