A member asked:

Too many nuts cause loose stools, and red color? little chunks of red? i don't think it's blood, since it doesn't seem to be a liquid. suggestions??

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Red in stool: If you recently ate a red-appearing material, then you may have rapid intestinal transit resulting in the food's inadequate digestion. However, be concerned since blood clots may also appear as red blobs. Bleeding in such a case can be without warning, brisk, & originate anywhere in the gut (from esophagus, stomach, to rectum. Don't hesitate to seek confirmation & care.
