Well, jaundiced is an condition brought on by drinking too much of any beverage high in sugar content (for example, it's not only alcohol your liver thinks is poison, but carbonated beverages such as soda or pop). The human liver goes into 'all hands on deck' mode the second an human drinks too much of any sugary beverage (alcohol or soda or caffeine rich drinks) because they liver thinks it's poison to the body. The skin turns yellow because the liver is in an acute situation trying to rid the body of that poison.
