Specifically, it&#8217;s beta carotene that gives food an orange color and does the same to your poop. Beta carotene is a type of compound called a carotenoid. Carotenoids can be red, orange, or yellow and are found in many types of vegetables, fruits, grains, and oils.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_my_stool_a_reddish_brown\"><\/span>Why is my stool a reddish brown?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Summary. Red-colored stools may be <b>the result of the foods you eat or bleeding. When red stools are caused by blood, it is important to determine where the blood is coming from. Sometimes blood in the stool may be from less serious things like hemorrhoids or anal fissures.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_orangish_poop_mean\"><\/span>What does orangish poop mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Poop can often come out the color of the food that went in, especially if you have diarrhea. If your poop has an orange hue, it&#8217;s <b>most likely due to some orange foods. Is your diet causing orange poop? Foods that have beta-carotene can turn your poop orange, such as: Carrots.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_color_is_stool_with_pancreatitis\"><\/span>What color is stool with pancreatitis?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, a blockage in the pancreatic duct, or cystic fibrosis can also turn your stool <b>yellow. These conditions prevent your pancreas from providing enough of the enzymes your intestines need to digest food.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_rusty_orange_poop_mean\"><\/span>What does rusty orange poop mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Orange stools are <b>often caused by eating red or orange foods. 2ufeff Supplements containing beta-carotene and aluminum hydroxide can turn stools orange. A lack of bile salts is one medical reason that can cause orange stool.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_my_poop_reddish_brown\"><\/span>Why is my poop reddish brown?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Small amounts of blood in the stool can indicate hemorrhoids. Eating beets or red berries, or drinking beet or tomato juice, also turns poop red. Once these foods have passed through the digestive tract, poop should become brown again.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_color_is_your_stool_if_you_have_liver_problems\"><\/span>What color is your stool if you have liver problems?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Pale Poop and Dark Pee Your liver is the reason that healthy poop looks brown. The brown color comes from bile salts made by your liver. If your liver doesn&#8217;t make bile normally or if the flow from the liver is blocked, your poop will look <b>pale like the color of clay<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_my_poop_light_tan\"><\/span>Why is my poop light tan?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Pale stools are not normal. If your stools are pale or clay-colored, <b>you may have a problem with the drainage of your biliary system, which is comprised of your gallbladder, liver, and pancreas. Bile salts are released into your stools by your liver, giving the stools a brown color.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_does_my_poop_look_reddish_brown\"><\/span>Why does my poop look reddish brown?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Small amounts of blood in the stool can indicate hemorrhoids.
