Hello

thank you for trusting HC

Dear green colour stools may be due to

1.Diet (beets, diets rich in green vegetables, licorice)
2.Bismuth (for example, Pepto-Bismol)
3.Gallbladder disease
4.Celiac disease
5.Ulcerative colitis
6.Crohn's disease
7.Tumors
8.Diverticular disease
9.Cancers
10.Hemorrhoids

I think In your senario it may be due to food that contain green vegetables.. If your asymptomatic nothing to worry but if your feeling bloating and pain or mucous in stools please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.


Take care.
