✍️ Summary:
Color Insights
Normally, stools are brown. It is a result of bile that is produced in the liver and helps with the digestion of fats. The brown color comes from bile salts being broken down by intestinal bacteria as the stool moves through the gut.
However, stools appear green sometimes. It happens when food moves through the intestines more quickly than usual, not giving bile enough time to break down fully. While usually not a concern, persistently green stool may also be a sign of a more serious issue like Crohn’s disease.
Consistency and Form
According to the Bristol Stool Chart, the appearance of stool may vary greatly and still be considered normal, but certain types point to specific health issues.
Stools that are hard and lumpy or sausage-shaped but lumpy typically indicate constipation. This condition may be due to a lack of fiber in the diet, inadequate hydration, or reduced physical activity.
Frequency
Frequent bowel movements, particularly when increased to more than three times daily, may suggest several conditions. However, if increased frequency is accompanied by changes in the form of stool, such as becoming loose or watery, it might indicate conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), infections like gastroenteritis, or inflammatory conditions such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
Moreover, acute diarrhea may also increase the frequency of stools. A patient may experience two or more loose stools daily. It may last for less than 15 days.
Odor
Typically, the smell of stools is influenced by diet and the bacterial environment in the gut. High-sulfur foods, such as garlic, onions, and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower, may lead to more odorous waste. Proteins are particularly known for producing sulfide gases during digestion, which contribute to the unpleasant smell.
