well it’s not bad for you

I don’t think it’s unhealthy. Just not very satisfying. There are ways to eat healthy and not sacrifice taste (kinda anyway).

That form of vitamin A is fine I believe…comes from beta carotene. I drink lots of carrot juice and have no problem with it. Just make sure it’s not bad before you drink it…people have gotten botulism from BoltHouse farms brand at least.

It is healthy but maybe cut down a little bit and drink some other fluids as well.

Yeah it should be fine. If you experience any medical problems or you notice you’re turning a little orange (skin) stop and take it easy. Remember to take a few days off the juice. And don’t eat too many things with high amounts of Vitamin A.

drinking too much carrot juice won’t incur any specific problems, it’s just the same as having too much of any food is bad

Perfectly fine, In fact, that’s the percent daily value of recommended vitamins. Enjoy your carrots.

Carrot juice is juice produced from carrots, often marketed as a health drink. Carrot juice has a particularly high content of Provitamin A (β-carotene), but is also high in B complex vitamins and many minerals including calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, iron, and folic acid. A pound of carrots will yield about a cup of juice, which is a bad yield compared to fruits like apples and oranges. However, carrot pulp is very tough; the main difficulty in juicing carrots is in separating the pulp from the juice. Drinking more than 3 cups of carrot juice in a 24-hour period, over a prolonged period of time may cause carotenoderma, which is a benign condition where the skin gains an orange hue.

It depends on the amount/grams of A in the liter, but note if you do intake too much the beta Caitrin will turn your skin orange…The main problem is with over dosing on vitamins depends on the types of vitamins there are water and fat soluble. The water soluble you can intake as much as you want and whatever you don’t need your body excretes in urine. The fat soluble is another story and excess that is not used by your body is stored in your fat cells depending on how much body fat content your body has will determine how much you can have without harming you. Vitamin A is fat soluble! The website below is a list of fat soluble vitamins and what happens if you get an excess of them.

You will soon notice your skin turning yellow.
An excess of vitamin A will swell the brain.
It will make your bowles run.
