Causes of Orange Stool

By , About.com GuideJune 25, 2012

Follow me on:

There is no one "normal" color of stool, as color can be affected by both by food and by the digestive process. As food moves through the digestive tract, it turns from green to yellow-orange to brown. Bile and bacteria is what gives stool its final brown color. What could cause stool to be orange in color, and could it be the result of a serious condition?
