What food can you eat in preparation for a colonoscopy procedure?
For the colonoscopy to be thorough and safe, your bowel must be completely empty. So, to prepare for the procedure you may have to follow a clear liquid diet for one to two days beforehand. A clear liquid diet means consuming only: Fat-free bouillon or broth Strained fruit juice (No pulp) Water Plain coffee Plain tea clear soda Sometimes you may be allowed jello and popcicles. The night before the procedure, you will also take one of several types of laxatives (such as Golytely or Fleets Phospho-Soda) This is known as a bowel prep. This is done at least 12 hours ahead of the procedure and after taking this you may not take anything by mouth, not even water. I just wanted to say that your phrase about not drinking anything after taking the prep is not true or was confusing. You are encouraged to drink a lot of clear liquid after taking the prep, to help with the process. Same thing the morning of the procedure-to do the prep again. 2-3 hours before your time of arrival is when you need to stop drinking anything by mouth. Of course the day before and the early morning of (depending on when you are scheduled) you can be on liquids only, and can have Jello, just not with any red or purple dye.
