What does it mean when your poop is really really green??


Question:


Answers:
Usually it means that you ate something really, really green like spinich or green beans.

We think of a healthy stool as being brown. Bile that is secreted in the first part of the small intestine is actually green. As stool is digested and passed through the large intestine it is turned into a darker brown color. If stool is still green by the time it is excreted, it could mean that it went through the large intestine too fast to be changed in color. This is often called "rapid transit" or "decreased colonic transit time" and diarrhea that is green in color could be the result. In breast-fed babies, green stool is a normal occurrence, especially right after delivery. In older children, the reason could be food-related as described above, or even from non-food items. Eating or sucking on colored non-food items such as crayons might also turn stools different colors. If green stool continues, or your bowel habits have changed in other ways, you may want to call your doctor. This is especially true if you are experiencing diarrhea which can be an indication of other problems or could lead to dehydration.
Well, if you're Mr. Spock it means you've got blood in your stool.
either you ate a lot of green veggies or something that had artificial coloring in it that green. I know when I eat a blue snow cone my bowels are greenish blue do to the syrup in the cone, same with red.
Have you drank Grape Koolaid? Or maybe eaten something with blue dye in it (cake iceing) I know when I consume things like this my stool (poop) turnes realy green. But you could have an infection as well. If you haven't eaten anything with dies in it maybe make an apointment at the Doctors office and take in a "sample" Because they will want one anyway.
you've been grazing too heavily on alfalfa
it means that you drank too much grape kool aid.
You could be radioactive.
Black = bad
Brown = normal
Green = weird
It happens when your body is getting rid of excess bile in your body or if the food is passing through the body too quickly. The green can also be a result of eating a lot of green & leafy veggies.
