serious answers please, i'm worriedWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Firstly, if you have had a green bowel movement there is no need to be overly worried!. There are generally two causes for a green bowel movement:

* something you have ingested, such as large amounts of green, leafy vegetables, green or purple artificial coloring, or iron supplements
* a variation in the gut transit time, particularly fast transit caused by diarrhea and IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)!.

The color of a bowel movement generally depends on the color of the food eaten and the state of the bile that is produced by the liver!. Bile is green in color and is only changed to brown through a proper digestive process, which takes time!.

So, if the food is traveling too fast through the intestines there is no time for the bile to be chemically changed, and so it will remain green until it is expelled from the body!.

The basic message is that a green bowel movement is not in itself generally cause for alarm, especially if it's just a sign that you've been eating too many green pop-sicles!. However, if it is a sign of severe diarrhea then you may want to see your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
