Grey Stool or "steatorrhea" indicates the presence of fat.
The medical term used for grey stools is steatorrhea, from prefix
steat-/ (fat), the connector /o/, and the suffix /-rrhea (flowing or bursting forth).
Stetorrhea can be caused by different underlying causes. Most of these underlying conditions are rooted in the disruption of digestive juices such as bile from the gallbladder (which emulsifies fat, making it frothy so that digestive enzymes can attack it) or any of the digestive enzymes made by the pancreas to digest fat. If any of these juices are in short supply or get blocked up, the body cannot digest and absorb fat, and the fat will simpy pass through the gut and out of the anus.
Also, the use of certain medications and food additives (such as Olestra in potato chips) has been associated with steatorrhea.
If you have ongoing steatorrhea, you should see a doctor and find out what is going on since it can be a sign of serious diseases such as cancers, bacterial infections, or cystic fibrosis.
