ve heard that eating beetroot can turn your
stools and/or urine red, but the thing is that my
stools were brown, but the toilet bowl area around the stools were red. I've been to the bathroom about 4-5 times since that time, and every time the color of my stools and the surrounding area has been normal which gives me some peace of mind. I've spoken to 2 doctors since then and they both told me that it's normal after eating beetroot, but I'm still a bit worried.
