Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I wasn't sure who else to ask, so I figured this group might be the right place: I am having a colonoscopy done soon and am wondering about a few things to eat while on the liquid diet in the prep stage. For example, would miso broth be okay? Vegetable broth? Anything else? They recommended chicken broth and jello and, for obvious reasons, that's not what I'm going to eat. I know this is probably the least important part of the whole procedure, but I'm trying to plan whatever small comforts I can for myself. Please reply to me off-list at davis_colleen -- I don't want to junk up the main list any more than necessary. Thanks in advance, Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miso is fine, so is juice, broth, anything like that. You could do superfruits (veg " jello " ), too. ygg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 My only advice: they give you phospho-soda powder to mix. It is SUPER sweet. I suggest putting it in mineral water or ginger ale... don't put it in sprite or 7up (like I did). I lost my appetite from the powder and nervousness of the forthcoming procedure. But no worries, they sedate you Marie On 4/9/07, davis_colleen <davis_colleen wrote: > > I wasn't sure who else to ask, so I figured this group might be the > right place: I am having a colonoscopy done soon and am wondering > about a few things to eat while on the liquid diet in the prep stage. > For example, would miso broth be okay?
