Green poop in a child?

my son has just pooed , & the colour was olive green looking faeces. Aged care nurse here & I don’t think I have ever seen a poo this kind. So what would this mean? He has Type 1 diabetes, & is 10yr. He did have a sports drink the other day that was Blue, as he was doing a huge run? Any ideas, Thanks, Jacra.

Answer #1

I also heard that a lot of iron in the system can turn your poop green.

Answer #2

im sure its the blue drink but poop is all kinds of colors dont worry im sure hes okay..goodluck

Answer #3

its just indegestion.. something he ate/ drank that didnt agree with his system.. thats why its green… green poop should not exceed more that 3 times.. if it does .. pls consult a doc.

Answer #4

his diet probably isn’t that well balanced…he probably just overloaded on the vegis and thats why his poo is that color:)

Answer #5

its only because your son ate a lot of vegis and fruits

Answer #6

It’s probably the blue colddrink…I know green colddrink makes your poop turn green and also eating silk worms…that’s the only two things I can think of.
