A member asked:
If my daily stool color for at least three months now is a darker brown than caramel but lighter brown than milk chocolate, should i be worried about liver problems or is this still brown enough to be "normal"?

Stool color: The various shades of stool color in your case should be considered normal. There is no indication of liver disease
