Poop color?

I just went to the toilet as usual as when I went to flush, I noticed that my poop are two colors: a lightish brown and a light black color. What is this and should I worry?

What you describe does not sound concerning. Pure black stools also in the setting of anemia would need GI evaluation for possible bleeding.
