Bought a juicer a few months ago. Drank way too much carrot juice and turned into an Oompa Loompa. Laid off it for a few weeks until my skin color normalized.

Started drinking 8 - 10 carrot juice every morning a few weeks ago. My palms are starting to turn orange again.

Does anyone know the amount of carrot juice per day or week one can drink without turning into a Oompa Loompa?

    I think you answered your own question. What you're doing is what will turn you orange. You are probably eating too many carrots. Try other juice blends, they are all really good, and a good variety is the healthiest way to juice.

    Eat a healthy, balanced diet with a wide range of fruits of vegetables and you won't be orange.

    Avoid excesses.
