Anyone know which brands of Bone broth (not regular broth) are safe/clear? Dr.s office couldn't tell me. I remember bone broth was how I survived prep because the protein made the hunger manageable. I don't want to make my own. I recall some brands looked too murky so I had to put it aside in the fridge.
Also, if anyone has some natural jello recipes they used let me know. Is honey safe? I recall regular store jello made me feel ill. I was thinking of making a lemon honey jello. |
Just get some Gatorade. |
It’s literally 24 hours.
Agree with the PP to do Gatorade. You’ll be ok. |
Gatorade makes me sick. I can only handle a little. Glad it works for you.
This post is for recommendations of bone broth and any jello recipes. thanks in advance. |
I made gelatin with white grape juice. It was tasty. I just googled "fruit juice gelatin" and most of the recipes looked pretty similar. I don't remember which one I used.
I was glad that I made a full batch because after the colonoscopy I didn't want to eat much for a few days. I thought I'd be ravenous and eager to go back to real food, but that wasn't the case. Ymmv. |
Just had a colonoscopy this week. The liquids do not have to be actually clear - yellow or beige is fine. Honey would be fine. Just no red dye.
Remember that they tell you tea and coffee are fine, and those are definitely not clear. I had chicken broth, lemon jello, tea, etc. No issues with prep. |
My DH drank the Zoup brand bone broth before his colonoscopy. Having the salty protein was a nice balance for all the sweet drinks. His rules were nothing red, so the brown broth was fine. |
I used Kettle and Fire organic chicken bone broth. They also have a beef version at Whole Foods. I also had a natural jello I found on Amazon and a fruit popsicle or two. But yes the bone broth really was what made me feel ok as the protein satiates. |
I got wonton soup from a local Chinese restaurant. I drained the solid parts and drank the broth. It obviously has a high sodium content so it helped replenish sodium levels and felt like I had something to eat. No problem with the colonoscopy drinking strained wonton soup. |
I drank the boxed chicken broth. I think the salt and the broth really helped me. |
Kettle and Fire |
I would rather eat nothing than drink chicken broth. Shudder. |
Trader Joe’s bone broth is great. |
Can you make your own? It is not that hard |
Thanks. I may try this! |
