Do not eat food with dead noodles (cakes, frozen dumplings). Be careful not to eat leeks and tofu skin. Eat more liquid food, such as porridge, noodles, etc., drink plenty of water, keep the bowels open, and use bowel cleansing medicine on the same day to keep the intestines clean.

Second, you should not eat or drink for two hours after the gastrointestinal endoscopy. After two hours, you can eat semi-liquid food, such as porridge, noodles, etc., and you can resume normal diet the next day. Patients who have undergone endoscopic removal of diseased tissue or endoscopic mucosal injection should abstain from food and water for four hours after the operation. You can drink a small amount of warm water after four hours. You must eat semi-liquid food for dinner and three meals the next day, and avoid raw, hard, hot, and sweet food to facilitate wound healing.

What are the dietary precautions after gastrointestinal endoscopy? Colonoscopy is mainly used to examine intestinal lesions. If necessary, a biopsy can be taken or treatment can be performed directly under the colonoscopy. If you only have an ordinary colonoscopy without a biopsy or treatment, you can eat 6 hours after the procedure. Recommendations: 1. If you have undergone polypectomy or colonoscopy for biopsy, you must fast for at least 24 hours. You can eat only if you have no bleeding or abdominal pain. Eat liquid food first, and then transition to a normal diet if there is no reaction. 2. If it is just a normal colonoscopy, you can eat 6 hours after the procedure. There are no special dietary requirements. If you have symptoms of colitis, intestinal dysfunction, diarrhea and abdominal pain, you must control your diet for a long time, avoid spicy and irritating foods, avoid greasy foods, and quit smoking and drinking.
