Bile: You may have not eaten anything green, but your body makes a green liquid called bile to digest your food. Sometimes if you haven't completely digested it, your stool will appear green. This color is normal along with yellow and brown.

Question 3

why is my poop green now for four to five days and i don't eat green leafe veg, so what can cause this and is it bad for u ?

Accepted Answer

Green Stool: It could be something else your are eating or a new medication or supplement you are taking. Additionally, bile can cause greenish bowel movements and if you have "rapid transit" of your bowels, for some reason, this could be the cause. It is usually not serious and goes away. If it lasts for another week or so, you may want to have it checked out.

Question 4

why is my poop green all the time, even on the days when i don't eat a lot of veggies?  ( most days i eat 8 servings of veggies)

Accepted Answer

Changed stool color: The color of stool varies with foods, speed of emptying of the GI tract, medications & supplements ingested, gut flora (unique for each individual), additives (like blood), subtractions (like absent bile), infection, inflammation, & other factors. Consider what you ate in the last few days, but if greenish color is unusual for you & persists or is accompanied by other symptoms, see your doctor.

Stool: Green, loose stool can occur with transit time through the GI tract is too rapid.

Question 6

why is my poop green and look fuzzy and my stomack is very bloated?

Accepted Answer

No worries...: Green stools do not symptoms of any known GI tract pathology.  Abdominal bloating is an extremely common symptom caused by a variety of factors.  I'd suggest:  taking a probiotic supplement along with a diet that is low in sugar and fat i.e. No fast food, fried food or highly processed foods.  No alcohol an get plenty of exercise and sleep.  If symptoms persist see a gastroenterologist.  Good luck.

Normal: The stool color is provided by the bile from the liver that is adds to fecal debris.It starts out a deep green & slowly changes thru greens to yellows to browns as the germs in the intestines metabolize the bile.Green generally means the stool in question moved through faster or was subject to less change by gut germs.
