Building bridges to better health.
Yellow gray stool may be related to dietary factors, may also mean suffering from indigestion, liver disease and other diseases.
1, dietary factors
excessive intake of food containing pigments, such as carrots, citrus fruits, etc., may lead to changes in the color of stool, such as yellow gray.
2, dyspepsia occurs
when the secretion of digestive enzymes may be reduced, resulting in incomplete decomposition of food. At the same time, intestinal motility slows down, food stays in the intestine for a longer time, and contact with bacteria will be prolonged, thus affecting the color of stool, resulting in yellow gray stool.
3, liver disease
bile is produced by the liver, under normal circumstances when mixed with stool will appear yellow. However, when the liver is damaged or disease occurs, bile composition and secretion may change, and thus can make the color of stool change, showing a yellow gray appearance.
