Stool Color Posted: 11-28-05 19:24pm
I'm not all sure about this, but I doubt
that it means anything. I think the color
of stool just depends on what you eat.
Like if you eat something green, blue, or
yellow, its usually a green color. If I
eat something light brown, red, or orange,
its usually a reddish-brown color or just
brown. Them if I eat dark colored food,
its usually dark. Plus, the stool has
corn in it if you ate corn, or if you ate
cole slaw, it would look like its
"shredded"
really, I just think it has to do on what
you ate for the past week, but if you are
really concerned about it, you should
mention it to your doctor.

Yeh, I suppose depends on what you eat,
but if it carries on for
more than a week i'd see a doctor because
this
could be a sign of internal bleeding...
