The title of the article is Carotenosis. However, this term appears only once in the article (aside from the title). The term carotenemia is used instead. If the terms are interchangeable, the body of the article should be changed to reflect the title. If indeed the two terms are not interchangeable, the article should be moved to one with the title Carotenemia. Opinions? Winston Spencer ( talk) 23:59, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Likewise to the above comment, it seems that "carotenoderma" is used interchangeably with the "carotenemia", one paragraph using the latter, then next using the former, as if nothing happened. Is it possible to include a note about equivalence of terms or their definitions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.253.96.133 ( talk) 11:53, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
This picture is not a good example for the condition. For starters, babies are always red and dappeled so the difference between this baby and a 30 year old are not clear, because no one knows how red this baby is on any given day. Secondly, the baby is wearing red! We all look a little more colorful in the face when we wear red. In all the world can a better and clearer example not be found? Third, he isn't that orange to begin with. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.150.35 ( talk) 03:55, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
One thing I was hoping to find in this article and that I've had a very difficult time locating elsewhere is how much beta-carotene (in mg, mcg, or IU) it typically takes to induce carotenosis. There has to be case literature on this. What is the lowest beta-carotene dose at which this effect has been observed? "Excessive" is not defined. Matt2h ( talk) 07:30, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Carotenemia and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 March 14#Carotenemia until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

This is the sort of article that would benefit from a good one (or even a few). Drsruli ( talk) 04:15, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
