A member asked:
Can hydroxycut sx-7 cause green stool? tried the supplement today and had it mixed in with the brown. some of the green was mucous. ate nothing green

Stool Color: Stool color is not important unless there is no color at all or it is bloody. Melena which is black sticky foul smelly stool signifies blood as well and is important. Otherwise green, brown, orange or shades thereof don't mean anything.
