A member asked:
I went to the toilet and half of my stool was a yellow colour. should i be concerned? what causes that to happen?

Normal variant: The poop is colorized by bile added during digestion. It transitions from an ultra green through yellows to browns based on germ action & metabolic changes during transition. The longer the transition the more a move to browns. The shorter the more likely to be a green to yellow.
