Tmi.... Poop question

[mamasheart2012]

Ok i have noticed lately that when i go poop its green. The only daily medicine i take is my seizure medicine and ive been on that for a while now. Does any one have any suggestions what could be causing this?

eating a lot of green dark veggies lately like kale?

LOL..you just helped me out with my ADD hubby's tooth brushing so I s'pose i owe you one.

Ok, here goes.....green poop, 9 times out of 10 is nothing ever to worry about.  It can be due to a change in diet, supplements, or as you suggested, meds.  It can also be due to a quicker than normal transit through the intestinal tract.

Is nothing sacred here??

[mamasheart2012]

No i dont eat a lot of dark greens right now.

[mamasheart2012]

Lol thanks. Hopefully nothing to worry about.

I have also eaten something before containing green dye.  The food itself might not be green, but if the dye reacts with your chemistry, it might "show".

Have you been eating green suckers or jello?  The last time that my son had green poop he had just eaten green jello...

[mamasheart2012]

No. I do eat a lot of parsley though.

That could be it.  Anything that you eat that's green in large quantities can turn your poop green.

I have heard you only have to worry if it is black or bloody.
