Stool is green when there is too much Iron in the body or when you simply eat alot of green leafy foods. You want your stool to float rather than sink. It's a sign of a healty diet.

Green, leafy vegetables contain chlorophyll, which can color the stool green, Green feces can also occur with diarrhea if bile passes through the intestine unchanged.

Green stool may be caused by green or artificially colored foods, iron supplements, or decreased colonic transit time.
