Green faeces: causes of green faeces and diarrhea
-
Green stools or green poop can occur as a result of dietary changes, such as switching to green, leafy vegetables. Due to the leaf green (chlorophyll), eating spinach, endive or lettuce can cause a different stool color, for example light green or more dark green. However, green stools in a child or adult can also occur as a result of an underlying medical condition, antibiotic use, alcohol consumption, laxatives, or a bacterial infection. A baby's first stool is dark green to black in color. This shit is called 'meconium'. Green poop can be accompanied by other symptoms. Depending on the cause of green stools, you may experience stomach pain, stomach pain, bloated stomach, flatulence, constipation, fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. For green stools as a result of nutrition, you need to consult your doctor. In case of green poop due to a disease, it is advisable to make an appointment with your doctor.

Green stools due to antibiotics
-
Antibiotics are prescribed for infections and are there to kill bacteria. If you've recently had a course of antibiotics, especially a strong course for a major infection, it will affect the bacteria in your gut. An antibiotic can kill large parts of the normal and beneficial bacteria in your gut. Antibiotics not only kill harmful bacteria, but also the beneficial bacteria from the intestinal flora, causing the intestinal flora to be disrupted. Diarrhea and green poop can be the result.
