A member asked:

My stool has looked deep green and a little furry. is that normal / abnormal or what? does it mean that something is wrong? that is all for now.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Food may be moving through the large intestine too quickly, such as due to diarrhea. As a result, bile doesn't have time to break down completely. Green leafy vegetables, green food coloring, such as in flavored drink mixes or ice pops, iron supplements.
