A member asked:

Why do i sometimes poop light brown to yellow poop? should i be concerned or is this diet related? i pooped this morning and the day before i ate pineapple, strawberries, and kiwis. earlier that day i ate eggs and orange juice?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Light colored or yellow stools is usually due to fat being present in the stools. The cause is fat malabsorption in the upper GI system. Gallbladder dysfunction and pancreatic dysfunction may be the cause. Most of the time it is harmless if it occurs only occasionally.
