A Smooth Colonoscopy Prep & Quick Recovery

Deploy These Strategies for a Stress-Free, Easy, and Effective Colonoscopy

If you're taking the time to get a colonoscopy, it means you care about your health.

You made an important (possibly life-saving) decision to be proactive before any potential issues show up. Kudos to you!

There are plenty of reasons people have a colonoscopy.

Maybe you’re doing it because you’re 45+ and are committed to routine medical exams to protect your health. Maybe you’re younger than 45, but have a family history of colorectal cancer and you want to minimize your risk as much as possible. Or maybe you’re experiencing gut health issues, and made the decision together with your doctor to check things out and ensure nothing sinister is going on.

And despite what you may have heard, there are ways to make the prep and recovery processes easier and — dare I say — more enjoyable...

What You’ll Learn

I created this guide to make colonoscopies smoother, easier, and more rewarding for patients. It incorporates practical wisdom from both sides of the camera, since I’ve performed many colonoscopies as a GI doctor and I’ve experienced my own colonoscopy as a patient.

First, I’ll explain some background, like how colon cancer presents itself and why colonoscopy is uniquely capable of detecting and treating it.

Next, I’ll outline seven steps for a smooth colonoscopy prep. It’s all concrete and in chronological order—what you should eat, drink, take, and do—starting five days before the scheduled procedure.

Finally, I’ll provide six steps for a quick recovery after your colonoscopy. The first five are straightforward and easy, and the sixth is just about what NOT to do. The better you’ve prepped, the likelier you are to be surprised by your ease and speed of recovery!
