What Causes Light Orange Puffs With A Black Spot In Stool?

My girlfriend has twice now had what she describes as cheeto-like chunks in her stool. They are little light orange puffs with a single black spot. She has recently taken to juicing, lots of different vegetables, but hasn t eaten anything that looks like this. What is it?

Thank you very much for contacting healthcare magic.

You have problem of black spotted stool.
That may be because of infection of intestine.
Bleeding from lower GI tract may cause black sports stool.

Sometime indigestion may cause discoloration of stool. Intestinal infection like Crohn disease cause this problems.

Stool examination test is helpful for further diagnosis.

Take care.
Thank you very much.
