Green stool: Green is the color of bile which enters the intestine from the gallbladder, faster transit results in greener stool . or it could be from greens that your ate as transit time is about 53 hours ( time in the colon alone in studies was 40 hours.) Stool colors that are worrisome are red, black tarry stool and white chalky stool. http://www.mayoclinic.org/stool-color/expert-answers/FAQ-20058080
