What is the Medical term meaning white stool?

The medical term for white or pale stools is acholic stools. Acholic stools are caused by a lack of bile pigments, which give stools their normal brown color. Bile pigments are produced by the liver and are excreted in the bile, which is a fluid that helps digest fats. When the liver is not producing enough bile, or when the bile ducts are blocked, bile pigments cannot reach the intestines and the stools will appear white or pale.
