Get ready for a mind-blowing “carrot tan skin hack” that’s taking the Internet by storm! This viral video on TikTok claims that eating three carrots a day can give you a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow without any harmful UV rays.
So, can this really work? Well, it’s not as simple as it seems. While it’s true that carrots contain beta-carotene, the pigment responsible for their vibrant color, consuming excessive amounts – above 30 mg/day – can lead to a condition called carotenodermia. This condition causes a yellow discoloration of the skin, but it’s definitely not the same as a natural tan.
