A member asked:
Can a golden coloured stool indicate appendicitis? or can it indicate gallstones?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neither: Stool color is determined predominantly by food intake, although green stools may suggest bile, and colorless or white stools may suggest biliary tract disease. Golden stools are not marketable and color means little if anything.
