Yellow Peril

Consumers could have a new incentive to eat fruit after a study found that eating heavily pigmented produce such as carrots and plums makes people more attractive.  Researchers at St Andrews and Bristol universities studied the relationship between skin colour and attractiveness, and found people with a yellow skin hue were perceived as particularly healthy and attractive.  They also established for the first time that yellow pigments, or carotenoids, from certain fruit and vegetables played a key role in producing yellowness in skin.

What a load of shite.
