I have been having many different colors of stool what do i have to do for it to be brown?

This isn't good: You either are experiencing different colors of stools due to your diet, lack of nutrients, minerals, or specific probiotic enzymes and antioxidants. Consuming processed foods that are overly acidic and non essential to the immune system and digestive tract, could be another confounder to this minor issue. This could lead to more serious problems later.
