Ask Your Question today
I have a question that has been asked thru the ages, why the f**k is poop green sometimes. What the f**k is up with that? Does it mean we are sick? Is it normal to wonder?
I once had a sprout,
My poop did come out green,
I wondered: What the heck is that about?
I once had a cabbage,
And then, it was really savage,
My poop did come out green oh once again,
Why is my poop green some of the time?
Why is my poop the colour of lime,
Why is my poop green occasionally,
Because your eating to much broccoli!
I shit green as well, Wal*Mart's Great Value Grape juice packets is my blame. But if anyone wants to an easy way to shit green, go get a venti Green Tea Frappuccino from Starbucks.... First time I had one of those orgasms for the mouth I shat green for a week... :-P
It's from bile salts. These are processed in your liver and not the kidneys, hence they are secreted in your shit and not your urine. 3 bottles of red wine drinker, you should see your doctor...your liver might be failing.
Once I had a Black Cherry slushie at Burger King and it turned my poop green, it was fucking hilarious lol, even my mom told it me it happened to her.
Let the guy talk about his shit if he wants to! It's his life!
And, avoid purple koolaid. :)
When food doesn't spend enough time digesting, whether it because you ate something that didn't agree, or drank too much alcohol, it comes out green or a shade closer to green than brown on the color wheel. Or it could be because you ate alot of green food or green food coloring.
hey guys i need help too.
i am a really healthy guy. but i seem to sh!t
SOILD type GREEN today at 4pm.
Wow now what the hell is that all about?
i dont eat anything bad, mostly nutritious cause im starting a workout session
but before the green affect i sh1t out rappedly and it wasnt green. .. lol
what the heck is my body doing
Hey, If you are also taking diet suppliments such as hydroxycut, it can also have an effect on the color and texture of your feces.
Seriously I turned around to flush the toilet and there were solid bright green and some multi-colored ones that looked like fall gone wrong and I'm totally freaked now! Did you ever get a (real) answer as to why this happens? I have eaten nothing green in the last 24 hours so it's making me nervous
it's normal probably. Food coloring. Just last night I ate a Bunch of skittles and my poop came out rainbow
it happens to me when I buy the off brand walmart lettuce...when I go to a normal grocery store it doesn't happen. fake lettuce
once i ate an entire packet of green icing and i had a green poop. no joke.
My mom said i loved baby spinach food. and thus had really stink green poop as a baby :)
this rarely has happened to me. but last night i went to 3 irish pubs. maybe its lucky shit! just sayin'.
So im not the only green s*****g freak out there. It was so funny cause when i dropped the kids of in the pool this morning, 2 of my kids were green. I totally freaked out and took a photo on my phone and sent it to my mates (as you do!)
For a real freak out, during the fall go to Baskin and Robbins Ice cream shops. They usually have a Black Licorice Ice Cream for the season. It is totally jet black. Eat a large cone or dish. It tastes awesome. BUT, the next day when you shit you will have jet black poop.
If I remember, grape products can turn your shit green. I seem to recall that happening if I drink lots of grape juice.
For a while, I was in the habit of eating cherries jubilee ice cream from Baskin-Robbins after a morning walk. That made my copious poop a rather bright green.
dood,,,my shit is green ok!!! FUCKKK
so...if i eat a box of lucky charms...will i shat the freakin RAINBOW!?!?!?
heh ^_~
What to laugh... I searched "What does it mean if my shit came out green" and this link poped up. I read most of them, then i realized i had a box of lucky charms last night, and the last time i ate lucky charms was when i was 5 before yesterday. that was 16 years ago. I think thats the reason why my shit was green this morning lmao. Your joke was actually useful. Thanks! Haaha
It could've been salmonella poisoning thats what happened to me when i had it... i know this was months ago (just saw it on dlisted) but you could still have a bacterial infection and that could give you problems later on so you should get it checked out.
got that second day in a row. getting worried now, plus stomach is killing me.
Do you eat a lot of stuff with food coloring in it before you poop green?
How about if you eat a lot of blueberries on your cereal every morning? Can it make your dookie green? How about if your right side hurts under your ribs sometimes. I had my gallbladder out in 2008. Could my bile duct be causing me problems now? Can't live without that. When I have to go, I've got to go. Right then and it's been green and sometimes skinny. I hate talking about poop. I think I should go to the Dr. Do you?
lol it depends on your diet poop can be alot of colors and yes im right my mom studies the medical field lol i love they way you asked
My mom told me it was caused by a small stomach infection that goes away by itself
my mom is a doctor she told me if you drink too much of an milk you get green poop. its normal nothing that could harm you in any way so yes no worry :D
I used to drink Grape Powerade and Blue Gatorade it'd be a darker green color, Natural Grape Juice wont usually affect it though, nothing to worry about. Weird tho...lol
Well yesterday I had a bunch of sugar free grape kool aid, and today my s&*%% was bright green! TRhat explains it lol
Most nights i drink 3 bottles of red wine. My shit is always green. I don't understand either.
IT HAPPENED DUE TO YOUR BODY BEING HEALTHY, DONT LISTEN TO THOSE IGNORANT DOCTORS , THEY ACTUATED SAYING THAT THE SHIT IS GREEN BECAUSE OF PREMATURE BOWEL MOVEMENT, THAT'S NOT TRUE, IT IS GREEN BECAUSE IT IS REALLY HEALTHY, AND UR SO HEALTHY, THAT THE BODY OF YOURS DOES NOT NEED TO RETAIN THAT EXTRA SHIT TO ABSORB, WHICH IS WHy you TAKE A sHIT IN THE FIRST PLAcE. SO, HEY, CONGRATULATIONS ON BEHALF Of truTH
How the shit you drink affect the shit you shit
You don't shit the shit you drink
Btw Fukken LMFAO at this freaking IIN
XD
I drank 2 litres of grape soda and just shit an olive green paste. Try it, its fun.
BTW it has nothing to do with your health or your digestion. Just what you eat. Your inside organs can't change the color of your feces.
Prenatal vitamins & vitamins high in iron can cause your poop to be green. Also IBS (Irritable Bowl Syndrome) can cause it too. If it continues for more than a couple of days, see you doctor just to rule out anything serious.
BLACK LICORICE thats right!!! everybody go get a bag of it and eat like 1/2 or the hole bag of it and poop the next day. I promise you that will be the most bright green poop you ever took...
we had this ? in science... most food u eat is green they jst add food coloring and our stomach cleens it out... so like when ya a babby u can pook the color of ya food.. do dont be scared about ya s**T
either you're eating lots of vegetables or you're actually a baby who can type.
The color of poop depends on what one eats. This morning, I had some Raisin Bran and my bowel movement came out Wall Street Green ...
Anyone who has been pooping green: Please see your doctor! Your liver could be failing! Had a liver transplant and that is not something that you want to neglect!
I get this too but I take laxatives as prescribed by my doctor. It's when everything comes out too fast and the bile in your digestive system doesn't have time to be properly made into a nice brown poop colour. So don't sweat it.
The other reasons could be from a diet high in green leafy veggies. Or the any of the other funny answers. :)
Don't worry it's just what you eat. Blueberrys make your poo black so don't worry green poo is normal depending on what u eat. U aren't sick no worries!
:) xxx Luciana
When I eat fruit loops I always have bright green dookie! Others have told me that happens to them too!
I'm not sure if I've already commented on this, but oh well! As far as I know, this can be caused by two things. 1. Is having a high fiber diet especially, if you eat coconuts and 2. Eating foods/beverages that contain artificial food dyes. I think red and blue dye are the most common culprits.
I always had green bombs when I ate Trix cereal. All the food coloring I guess.
I once had a piece of cake with a lot of green iceing and frosting.... You know the result!
If your mind is blown when your poop is green, eat a bunch of red pickled beats. You will have to sit right back down and s*** bricks after you see what is in the toilet.
i take iron tablets for my lupus anemia and the side effects make my poop green
Seriously though, my poop is ALWAYS green after i've drank a blue slushie!
@:Ifartgreenshitandlickmydick101
wat a name and that's awesome cuz it neon!!
But when I went to a water park and then when I came home me and my cousin were pooping orange r green idk but it was the worst day of my life
Your poop gets green when you eat a lot of fruit. Normal poop is brown. I learn that the hard way because I eat too many grapes and had no access to a bathroom and I shit myself
R u vegan... Cause I'm a vegan and I can't remember the last time I had anything butt green
Holy Crap this is popular! But seriously, once this happened to me and it freaked me the fuck out!!! So I researched it and found out that if you have anything with blue or green food coloring (food or drink), this will happen. Guess what, the very day before I'd had birthday cake (one of those brightly colored ones for kids) with BLUE AND GREEN FROSTING!! Mystery solved. No need to worry!
Does it glow?
If it does, you might be from Greenpeace.
You know, battling all the nuclear stuff and such.
Most likely it's what you ate. The color of your poop depends on what you eat. Vegetables, wheat and other things with fiber tend to affect the color.
have u ever seen cow poop? its green sometimes when they eat lots of grass lol
That happened to me once after drinking a lot of Red Bull. When I told my friend about it, he said Red Bull has the tendency to do that when consumed in large quantities.
If you're feeling unwell and your shit is green then thats normal because you're sick and you're body is letting you know, but if you are feeling relatively normal, you need a diet change for the better and more fibre. Colour changes and abnormalities are natures way of telling you something is wrong.
Purple koolaid (alot) does the trick well. As would anything with dark dye (natural or synthetic) hahah ol irish shat.
Actually, when you get scared, your gut leaks out a substance called bile that turns your poop green.
Its 99% normal, It Happening This becauze U ate something green.Its 1% probably to be sick.If u want go to doctor ask him and make analysis.Yur a Green-Pooper:D
I'm an all meat eater. If I eat alot of vegetables I always get green poop its normal.
i think it's because of the bile pigments. did you not eat much for the day before you pooped green?
Eating purple stuff turns poop green, like red wine, grape juice, and purple food coloring in grape soda. It's fine. Veggies turn brown as they decompose, but the digestive enzymes turn the reddish/purple pigment of grapes green.
Ive read all your stories about your poo, i would just like to share something, if your turds are green you seriously need need to see a doctor, watch what you eat, and poo wisely ;)
If you are on some sort of a supplement you can poop green. Particularly if it's some sort of a cleansing supplement (colon cleansing, fat flushing, detoxing) because it is cleaning out your digestive tract. It could also happen if you just ate something with a fuck-ton of fiber like spinach. Also, beets will make you pee and shit red, as can red velvet cake.
I never eat yogurt and finally found a yogurt that I like. Soon after, the green stuff started. However, I also eat buffalo chicken and sugar free cran pomegranate drinks.
Is it normal to have green poo? Nope. Not in this life or the next. Go to the doctors.
It normally means you have too much iron in your system, or green veggies. Hope I could help..
One time I sat down in front of a tv and mindlessly ate Baby Bottle Pops. Guess what color my poop was the next morning?
Well people there's a lot of ways to explain green poop 1.u eat lots of green stuff 2 ur gonna die ur really healthy and well ur poops just green ya so good luck with ur green shit LOL!
Ya it's nomal when you eat a lot of food with red coloring it makes your poop green
What is the cause of green poop?
(Question submitted by ap, CrAzYMiC98 and several others)
I have consulted with a doctor, a physiologist and a microbiologist on this question, and the following summarizes their answers:
Healthy people can have green poop if they eat a diet rich in leafy green vegetables, or if they consume large quantities of food coloring (in ice cream, cake frosting etc.).
Green poop can also be caused by excess iron in the diet, from dietary supplements, for example. If the body does not absorb all the iron consumed, the iron may stain the poop green, the color of iron (II) salts. Ordinarily, the green color may be masked by the normal brown poop color, but if digestion is thrown off by illness so that bilirubin is less concentrated in the intestine, the green color may become apparent. This can happen when a person is afflicted with diarrhea.
Green poop in sick babies may come from iron in baby formula not being properly absorbed, or by green pigments in bile salts (again, green from iron).
read all about poop http://www.smellypoop.com/facts_about_poop.php
Thank god for Google! Woooooooooooooooo! Didn't know so many people shit out little green martians (phew) afta reading the feedback I realise that it must have been the blue powerade I drank last night ...and not the bush I ate in the morning ...such a re-leaf (sorry)
i think if you eat crappy food it turns your shit green, change your diet, i should change mine 2
OK I know for a fact that if you eat Cap n crunch berries your poop will be all sorts of greens...looks cooler than the normal brown...looks like incredible hulk green so dont be alarmed its just the food coloring in the berries
uhh...depends on what you eat...if you eat alot of green stuff and food colouring ect. then there's your reason. If you are that worried about it ask your doctor.
one time i drank 15 kool-ads that were blue
and the next morning my pee and poop we light blue
that was a twist in the morning
I'd say have your liver or gallbladder checked.... Could be a digestive system issue
At Our Sweet Shop We Had These Bright Blue Lollies. They Made Mine And My Sisters Poop Half Green.
Eat a while lotta beats, and your pee will be red! Or eat esparugus and it will smell terrible.
It's what you eat, most likely. Think about what you ate after a green poop. Otherwise, go see a doctor just to make sure. You never know. Maybe an alien sneaks into your room from time to time and rapes you, shooting a green load up your butt.
Hiya Guys,I've just signed up for this website. I have read all your comments! I have the same problem as some of you people. I'm doing green craps! It's just so wrong, I don't add food colouring into any of my food. I will tell you when it started, I was in school on that Friday just there, i had a really strong headache, I told my teacher. Then i went to the office and told the lady in the office, She tried to call my mum.My mum wasn't obviously in! So it was lunch time, i went down to the cafeteria for lunch and i had a ham roll with some salad on the side. After i had my lunch my headache went away, that's when i went to the toilet. So i done the toilet, i done the toilet, flushed the toilet, then noticed one of my crap didn't flush down. That's when i found out i was doing green crap's. Then i walked home from school on Friday. Then on Saturday I done more green crap's! Then i had my dinner, i had fish and chips, i didn't eat any of it! Now i'm not eating as much as i normally do. My dad said he noticed i wasn't my self lately, like i had'nt been eating alot i looked worried and sad and painful. He's true i do feel all that stuff, my back is acheing and i have problems breathing sometimes, Thanks If You Read This Long Message! Byee xx
We just saw green poop on the road in Toronto Island. I guess it's possible to have such a thing!
LMAO !!!! ye i was wonderin same about why my shit is always dark purple !! :))))))
The title should not be green poop. Your not asking about the green poop, you are asking if it is normal to think about the poop, which is green.
It's normal. Happens sooner or later. Red poop though, not sure about that.
Errrrmmmmm
Your Poop Is Green Coz You Ate Something With Lots Of Chlorophyll!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I crap in 3 colors.
Most of the time it is the color of chocolate, than I have the green terds and sometimes I have a really light brown colored crap
I think green terds are normal. I have them and when my son was a baby and I had to change his diaper I know that he had them as well.
When I was a little kid, they had these hard sweets that had a lot of colouring in them, so if you just ate one, they would turn your shit purple, red, green, blue or orange. So yeah, what comes in must get the fuck out.
means you have a lot of natural fiber from vegetables in your diet, totally normal
its more of a question for a doctor, but it is from stuff u eat or drink
I checked a medical website and it said that one of the reasons why you may experience a green bowel movement is a premature release of the bowels. That is, your poop hasn't been fully processed. This happened to me, ironically enough, on St. Patrick's Day.
I did @^*^ green today, It was not a very nice supprise. I noticed everytime I eat frosted flakes this happens to me. So no more Frosted Flakes for me.
I used to get green poop all the time. I don't think it indicates any disease, it's something everyone gets.
i had green poop for like 2 days or maybe more. maybe cause i had lots of milk and lots of red viamin water and fanta :). i was so scared, i skipped pooping for a day cause i thought i was mutated or something or i was gonna die. this makes me feel a little better tho.
Mine turns green after I eat things with green frosting or if I drink Mountain Dew.
It turns green because of the bile. Bile is a substance produced in the liver to neutralize the acid in food and to aid in digestion. If your poop is always green then you should go see a doctor. A little green sometimes is normal though.
i actually did that one morning when i was 11 so 7 years back and i got to stay home from school,its because i ate 3 or 4 bowls of cereal the night before.
OMG NOW I KNOW WHY!
Dude for like 3 days my shit has been clumpy ST PATRICKS DAY GREEN! I was like WTF IS WRONG
My dad was like 'u have too low of iron'
It's prolly the blue mountain dew I've been drinkin constanly haha.
green poops is actully from lots of iron. if you eat blue cottage your poop will turn slightly blue. poop can vary from different colors without you knowing it
GREEN POOP i think its from GRAPE gatorade and shit anything purple will turn out green for somem ridiculous reasons
urm, if you eat red things, it makes your "solid waste" aka crap green. So if you eat lots it will make it green. :D
it can be what you ate, if it has food dye in it, or if you were sick with the flu, or anything, it maybe from that also....
no worries, unless it starts to happen everyday for a week ...
haha i have green poop alot but i have IBS and i started having instense pains on my sides so i had to get a colonoscopy it was quite fun! haha jk its not fun but u dont feel a thing so ya if u dont have IBS and keep having green poop ask ur dr.. its prob nuthing but just to be safe!!
grape thats the answer anything remotely related to a grape makes your poop green
Yep did a green crap 1/2 hr ago not full green though, other day did pretty much a all green shi,.t and man did it stink im like wtf normally u cant smell ur own poop but damn it stunk so i though wonder if it happens to other ppl so anyone know the real reason for green poop???
like everyone elses has said its diet. back when i used to drink nothing but blue vodka cruisers when i hit the piss (yes i was pretty intense) my morning after grog bog would be a blue shade
If you have a really good diet with lots of green salad stuff! Your poop can turn green.
If you have a really BAD diet with lots of food coloring! Your poop can turn green.
It is really noticeable if you drink grape kool-aid or gatorade...Give it a try!
OMG - this shit is do funny. I just fired a green missile and my theory is that I had waaay too much alcohol yesterday night, that's the only thing I can think of. Fiouf!
ive been eating lots of chicken mc nuggets lately, i thought thats what was turning my crap green, but ive also been drinking lots of grape soda too, so that must be the real problem, ill have to switch to orange soda
LMAO, omg i can't stop laughing, dis is hilarious, cause i just sh*t a green turd too, and yesterday one of the ladies in the office bought everybody a Bubble Gum Snowball. After reading everybody's comment, i am convinced that its the blue dye and cereal that turns sh*t green. Thanx everybody for the good laugh and good info. Ya'll are da sh*t.
<-----also poops green. i drink a lot of grape soda, not kool-aid or grape juice. lats 3 times been like that. i think a water detox is in order. and if no improvement prolly should see the doctor
We noticed that a monster energy drink, that was purple in color, from 7-11 caused this. It was a slurpee and like 5 different people all had it happen, bright green poop. Weird but true. I wonder whats in it that causes people to sh** green. It cant be healthy.
I just came from teh restroom and you get where im goign at and it was green... nothing changed out of my diet... then i read "pww006" comment... I had a Monster Energy Drink Slurpee.... it was purple and i would assume a "Black Cherry" slushie would be the same collor so... that explains it.... other than that when i was little I use to eat thoes Raven vials of sour shugar... and that did it to me everytime...
Hello,
I have a Fu..ing green pooo too for like 2 3 days.
Sins=ce i had this fu..ing multicolored cereal with blue yellow green red.is it because of that??
I am nervous
Ok. So lately my poop has been green. Didnt really care at first but then i became interested why it was only happening on certain days. So i looked it up and this link popped up and i figured it out!!! Its the Cool Blue Gatorade that i have been drinking at work!!! Freakin A!!! At first i was thinking that it was food that i ate, but its only blue dye in foods that turns my sh*t green!! What a relief!
omg thank you guys i just shat green but i also had one that was brown but i remembered that i had a blue slushey that was all syrup
I went to my moms house today and all of a sudden I had this big urged to take a shit. After the relief of taking a shit I was wiping my ass and all went in shock when I saw the color bright like guacamole on my tissue. I look down in the toilet and I see a big green turd floating.
So I got back home that night and took a shit again and sure enough it will still green. I immediately turned my computer on and typed "why am I shitting grean?" and it through my to this link. I felt more calm after reading everyone's story and realized that appartently I'm not the only one shitting green. I also realized that I've been shitting green because I had two bowls of Captain crunch berry's that my wife gave me.
Man! That's it. That's the answer, for the past two days my Terd's have been Nuclear Green. I just read the Cap'n Crunch comment, and realized I bought a box of Cap'n Crunch all Crunchberriers for the first time in like Ten Years, and my Dookie is Nickelodeon SLime Time Green!
I was a little freaked out when my shit was solid and green this morning. But after reading all these messages, I figured out that it must have been the huge blue vanilla slurpie that I had yesterday. Crazy that all the blue dye turns it green.
I just had green poop 30min ago! after reading everyones comments, i realized it is because of the Sonic 44oz blue powerade i had last night to help me with my Softball game!! :) hahahaha
Route 44 Grape Slush is what I had yesterday, and today....you guessed it....GREEN POOP!
my dog ate the tiles from the kitchen floor and she been pooping bright green sht..at first i though it was paint, and had to smell it to make sure... yea it was sht... dude you been eating the fu@king tiles of yr kitchen floor since you was a toddler! when the fu@k you gonna grow up and learn not to put sht in yer mouth???
i don't know why, but i get green poop when i drink sugar free grape kool-aid!
ok the only time i had green poop was when i had 3-4 world of warcraft blueberry canned soda. you drink 3 of those and your shit turns fuckin neon green, its amazing.
I thought poop should be green for ages until I see this pg..... so wtf is the normal color then....
Sometimes when I eat food with blue food coloring in it, my poop is green the next day
I don't think it's beer, unless you're just drinking old beer or something. Beer just makes your poo more watery. Maybe you've been eating a lot of vegetables.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this post and read everyone's answers! Lately my shit has been white with bright yellow things in it, and I was worried at first, but now that I've read this post, I have figured it out. I have been drinking like 3-4 of those coconut slushes from the 7-11 store every day and eating nothing but corn on the cob. Jeesh...glad I read this post and figured out the problem!
green poop scared the shit out of my friend. She was freaking out. She stopped freaking out after reading your comments. so THANKS
exactly what i said :) does anyone know if the monster flavored slurpee is an actual energy drink. or is it just better to partially freeze a real monster energy drink?
This is crazy. My poop is Christmas tree colored green. Instead of freaking I'm chalking it up to the fact that there was a lot of blue dye in the flowers on the piece of cake I ate last night at work. But you guys made me feel better during my freak out. thanks!
I had my first green poop today. At first I freaked out wondering what was going on? Then I found this site and when I read what you had on here about blue frosting on a cake. I had a birthday cake on Monday that had blue flowers on it and had at least three pieces within a three day period. So now I am hoping that my poop turns back to normal soon.
Why the fuck to so many people care?!?!
AND WHY THE FUCK DO YOU CALL IT POOP?
