WHY COLONOSCOPY PREPARATION (BOWEL PREP) IS IMPORTANT

Preparation of your colon is necessary for your doctor to see the entire colon completely free from its normal contents. Under clear conditions polyps, tumors, or other issues can be identified. The prep consists of starting a clear liquid diet the day before the procedure, while taking rounds of strong laxatives. Patients spend most of the day and evening on the toilet amazed at what comes out of their bodies!

BOWEL PREP ESSENTIALS

  • Clear liquid diet 24 hours before procedure
  • Laxative solution to purge your colon
  • Avoid solid foods
  • No drinks with red nor purple dyes

RECOMMENDED CLEAR LIQUIDS

Common clear liquids need to be free from red or purple dyes. Examples:
  • Water
  • Apple juice
  • Clear broth
  • Sports/electrolyte drinks
  • Teas
  • Jello
  • Ice pops

WHY CLEAR LIQUID DIETS FALL SHORT

The clear liquid diet doesn’t provide enough calories or nutrients to satisfy your daily requirements. Laxatives stress your body and strip fluids, leading to dehydration. You end up low on energy, weak, and fatigued— both before and after your colonoscopy. You can’t out‑drink the losses.
