  • Brooks Bell, the Colonoscopy Enthusiast and Colorectal Cancer Alliance Board Member, goes shopping before a follow-up colonoscopy. What are some of the best things to buy at the grocery store when prepping for a colonoscopy? Brooks helps build your shopping list!
    In January 2019, Bell was diagnosed with stage-III colon cancer at age 38. She underwent six months of surgeries and chemotherapy. During that time, she learned of the shocking rise of colorectal cancer in young people, which inspired her to share her story, establish an awareness campaign, and start an initiative and event to encourage colorectal cancer screening.
    Colorectal cancer screening is the No. 1 way to prevent colorectal cancer or detect it early, when it's most treatable. All average-risk adults should begin screening at age 45.

    Don't forget Glade and at least 3 rolls of toilet paper.

    Just got thru my 4th colonoscopy… get thru the prep, it’s easy after that. Fat free broth helped a lot …by dinnertime, needed something that was somewhat close to real food.

    I'm 10 years out from needing my first colonoscopy but I'm still watching these in preparation..also it's a good thing I like to read . As I feel like I will be doing that a lot the day before and the day of when I'm in the bathroom emptying my bowels

    broth is such an essential pick ahh yes!! shout out to coconut water. However the real legend here is a sprite from the McDonald’s drive thru. My partner left to give me a “surprise” in the middle of my prep and they came back with a sprite from McDonald’s and I started crying haha. I don’t even drink sprite but it was such a treat.
    Also, when you consume your broth, pretend it’s pho broth and you just finished eating everything in your pho.

    I was sick to my stomach afterwards. This was my biggest mistake upon completion of the test. I actually plan to slowly reverse my foods choices sans the bowel drink this time!

    I don't drink Sprite but I have to give it a shout out... even if it was in the recovery room AFTER my colonoscopy. Another great option is applesauce. :)

    Delicious food?
    Interesting that all the stuff you have in your cart are things that I NEVER consume.
    I guess the “good news” is that the vile-tasking colon prep substance will not sour my taste for anything that I truly love to eat or drink.

      Your right. An it's airborne so the no mask is startling. Not what video was about but couldn't help myself. I have seen videos done with a mask on.
      Other than that it is informative.

      There was another guy in grocery store without a mask at all. It's unfortunate but true that different areas have different rules/culture about mask wearing. I won't hold it against her.
