What color is normal for stool?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, what color is normal for bowel movements?

Doctor's answer:

Each person's condition is different. Some may absorb well and may only need to go to the bathroom once every few days, while others may need to go multiple times a day. It is generally yellow and pasty in consistency. The above conditions are often caused by internal heat, slow gastrointestinal motility, and lack of moisture, leading to these symptoms. It is recommended to actively take oral medications such as Mahan Zhipian pills or aloe vera capsules for treatment. At the same time, pay attention to supplementing with more water. You can also take probiotic dairy products appropriately to help regulate the digestive system. Avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, and irritating foods that can cause internal heat.
