    Green-colored poop or feces might be caused by different factors. For an example, it can be because of the food that you ate. Green and leafy vegetables contain more amount of chlorophyll which forms the green color in the feces. Foods that have certain kinds of additives such as artificial flavors or colors, may also have a greening effect inside your intestine. so It could also mean that the stool ( presence of bacteria ) would be there.

    Consulting a doctor is the better way if the problem continues.

    You say you haven't eaten a lot of green foods. But have you maybe eaten ANY lately? I got green poop once after I ate bright blue ice cream...that was ALL I ate that could have caused it, but it did. It's not like I ate it multiple times in a week or anything, I only had it once. I guess it was the dye that was in the ice cream.

    But if you're really worried, see your doctor. If it doesn't go away after a couple of days then maybe you should go.

    poop comes out green when it hasn't been in the digestive tract long enough. You should put it back

    that is for the reason which you have not been eating adequate fat so your physique isn't processing any.mild colored stool frequently shows that your physique isn't processing any fat. it is not something to be afflicted approximately. infants have mild eco-friendly stool because of fact all they drink is milk.
