Poop Color

Poop Color. Most of the time, stool will be light to dark brown in color. But stool that's a different color, texture, or consistency, are all signs there's something different going on in your body.

This is due to the presence of bile in the stool. Believe it or not, the color of your poop can be an indicator of disease. As mentioned above, the color of a normal poop should usually be a medium to dark brown.

Baby poop comes in a range of colors.

As food passes through your digestive tract, digestive enzymes break down the bile, resulting in various shades of brown stool.

However, occasionally having green poop is also common and not a problem. The presence of the bilirubin in the bile (a breakdown product of the hemoglobin in red blood cells that are normally destroyed after a useful life of several weeks) is generally responsible for stool color. When you notice the color of your stool is black and it looks coffee color, it might be as a result of what you ingested.
