Will You Get Too Much Carotene From Eating A Raw Carrot With Every Meal?

post 98707 What do you mean?

if there are pieces carrots in your stools, they haven't been digested very well, as you can see the orange color. Not normal. These are soluble fibers (both soluble and insoluble, in fact).
I would diminish the quantity, otherwise you'll get inflammation, and afterwards a possibly leaky gut...

Do you have a moment for our lord and savior Resistant Starch?

What makes you think the undigested carrot fiber is inflammatory? I would have thought it is very anti-inflammatory.

It should be for most people but not when lumen is inflammed. In fact, it's just a captation for toxins and to dampen estrogens.
Pause with raw vegetable (less). Aloe vera (inflammation) and L-glutamine to feed enterocytes.
I would also take boswellia serrata against inflammation, twice a day.
When quiet, I alternate raw and cooked vegetables.

Maybe aversion is indeed connected to ability to deal with carotene. I had slightly orange calluses and couldn't eat the salad even washed, more than a week or two at a time. Long gaps before I could consider it again. Now they're gone and I've only missed 2 days in the last 2 months and that's just by mistake.

[highlight=yellow]Listen to your body[/highlight]: Your brain is trying to send a message. Stop with this food for minimum 3 months, before it 's marked "rubbish" or "toxin". Otherwise it will be rejected by immune system. Overload.

post 98606 Will you get too much carotene from eating a raw carrot with every meal? Is it better to take things like Psyllium instead of carrots?

Seems to depend on the person. May be affected by thyroid function, B12 levels, and what else you are eating.

Many seem to be fine with a raw carrot daily.
It seems to do me good as long as I rinse the grated carrot well. Otherwise I can't stand to eat them after about three days. I'm guessing that's the carotene, but it could be some other carrot constituent.

I'd suggest that if you have/get orange skin or callouses, or the carrot doesn't taste good, try rinsing. If it's still not good, try (cooked) bamboo shoots. Otherwise, munch away.

For me, raw carrots increase my libido. I don't eat them at every meal though. One or maximum two carrots a day. I eat them raw like a rabbit and afterwards I eat one or two spoons of refined coconut oil (Louana). The main reason maybe is that it clears my intestines and keeps my digestion system work nicely. Or it could be because of the coconut oil lol. I have a belief we need some sort of fiber everyday, either from carrots, bamboo shoots, solid fruits like dates or even potato (I don't like to eat potatoes). Carrots make me less bloated and keeps water retention at bay.. Not sure if carrots are the main reason, but they certainly help (at least help me personally). When I eat them and I don't like their taste, I throw them.. I buy another batch.. Going by taste is generally a good way.

I'm thinking about ethanol extraction of carotenes from carrots to make a huge carotene-free bunch and freeze it.

Ive been having 2 Raw carrots per day. 1 first thing in the morning 1 hour before a meal. Then another later in the date between meals.

I do have carrot in my stools. Is this bad? Any reasoning for it?

Hello friends,
I've been eating carrot salad for months now but my hands and feet are getting orange. Probably I'm not converting to retinol. Is that a problem?
Will I become a walking carrot?

Depends on the size of the carrot. Mike Fave recommends some carrot salad with each of your meals.
