A member asked:
I poop in morning within ten minutes of wake up. and my poop is normal , but today when i second time poop it was all normal but a 2 inches piece was dark brown and spongy what does that mean i eat chicken and potato last night. ?

Likely normal: Texture of stool can normally vary from firm to very soft depending uponon how much fiber plus how much fluid (essentially water) it contains. Consistency of stool is also dependent upon diet. For instance, most fruit will plus adequate fluid intake will keep your stool soft. Whereas, poor fluid intake and eating lots of cheese will keep your stool hard. Color change reported is normal..
