A member asked:

I have been drinking lemon juice with water for almost 2 weeks now and suddenly my stool turned black. is this normal and if not what is the problem?

Stool: Black stool could be from something you ate. However it could also be blood that has come from your upper GI tract. See your doctor and get a definitive diagnosis. Good Luck
