No....but it does mean you have some sort of an infection in your body, maybe you have a cold or something.

That's NOT true! Green can be cause by too much iron in the body or eating too many leafy greens or eating things with green or purple dye in them.

 

Actually I think dark green BM can come from pregnancy. I had it. It was the first sign that I had BOTH times I was pregnant. I'm sure it has to do with the changing of hormones. The hormones cause your digestive track to flow differently. Too much blie in your BM can cause a green color and it the BM moves at a different rate than normal then some of the bowel may not get absorbed causing a green color.

I meant some of the bile may not get absorbed causing a green color.
