Do carrots change color of urine?

Carrots contain a carotenoid pigment called beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body. Some of the beta-carotene is not converted and is excreted in the urine, which can give it a bright yellow or orange color. This condition is called carotenemia and is harmless. However, it can be mistaken for more serious conditions, such as liver disease or kidney disease, so it is important to see a doctor if you are concerned about the color of your urine.
