Thank you for posting query.

according to best of my knowledge, carrot juice is beneficial to combat jaundice rather causing it.its healthy.

Carotenemia is NOT jaundice and NOT a disease. Its common in children and NOT adults.
Increased ingestion of carrots may lead to Carotenemia, a yellowing of the skin caused by eating an excess of certain vegetables. In this condition, a yellowish skin maybe observed BUT it does "NOT" affect the eyes while jaundice (increased bilirubin) affects eyes also- sclera may become yellow in Janudice.

if any further questions, feel free to ask.
