Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A clear liquid diet is required prior to most gastrointestinal procedures as it helps to ensure that the digestive tract is completely emptied and provides a clear view for the procedure. Blenderized diets, high-kcalorie/high-protein diets, and low-sodium diets are not appropriate for a day before a gastrointestinal test procedure.
