yellow oily liquid before bowel movement Posted: 01-13-08 12:37pm


yesterday after lunch my BM was preceded by what seemed to be just gas, but what was really a yellow-oily liquid of some sort. The liquid comes out very easily, in "farts" that are hard to control. I know the term "oily" sounds strange. it sure is to me because i have never had this before, but it kind of looked at first like the oil on top of soup. I've also noticed that it has a fairly thick consistency, like lining of some sort. (In other words, when I would flush, the yellow liquid would continue to stick on the inside of the toilet bowl.) I started having this BM after lunch yesterday, which was seaweed salad. Can someone please alleviate my concerns and tell me this is all because of the seaweed? Because I am pretty freaked out. THANK YOU!!!!

It sounds like toxins.

It's not serious. It's a case of "keriorrhoea". Just indigestible wax/fats being excreted. Think of it like fiber, but in oil form. It happened to me when I ate Escolar (an oily fish with indigestible wax esters that are not able to be digested by humans). What you describe is also called anal leakage. Remember Olestra?
