"Facing a 'colonoscopy', the most daunting thing is often the 'diet', isn't it?"
Amidst confusing foods like 'can I eat this?', here's a 'winning' diet to avoid the worst-case scenario of a 're-examination'! From D-3 to the day of the exam, I'll provide a complete guide.
D-3: The War Against 'Seeds' and 'Fiber'
For an accurate examination, you must temporarily 'break up' with foods that can leave residue in your intestines.
- ❌ Absolutely Not! (Foods to avoid)
- Fruits with seeds: Grapes, strawberries, oriental melons, kiwis, watermelons, etc.
- Multigrain, beans: Brown rice, black rice, bean rice, sesame porridge, etc.
- Seaweed: Gim (laver), miyeok (sea mustard), dashima (kelp)
- Vegetables: Kimchi, namul (seasoned vegetables), mushrooms, and other high-fiber vegetables
- ⭕️ Only Eat This! (Recommended foods)
- White rice, white porridge, white bread (castella)
- Soft proteins: Tofu, egg whites, steamed eggs, fish fillets
- Fruit: Banana (the leading seedless fruit)
- Broth: Clear broth without solids
D-1: A Day with 'Transparent' Things
The day before the examination is the most crucial for clearing your bowels.
- Breakfast/Lunch: Eat only white porridge or gruel.
- Dinner: Absolutely no food!
- Drinks: Drink plenty of clear liquids such as water, sports drinks, honey water, or barley tea.
- 🚨 Coffee is strictly prohibited!: The dark pigments in coffee can remain in the intestines, hindering an accurate examination.

Although it might be a bit cumbersome and challenging, 3 days of diet control is the most definite first step to protect your precious 'colon health'.
May you pass the examination in one go with thorough preparation and regain a healthy daily life!
