Summary

This study tested whether taking two bottles of a high-energy nutritional supplement (Resource® Energy Apricot) during colonoscopy bowel preparation could reduce hunger without harming the quality of the colon lining view. 299 adults scheduled for a colonoscopy took the supplement along with their usual clear-liquid prep. Researchers measured how well the colon could be seen and how hungry participants felt.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Resource® Energy Apricot (high-energy nutritional supplement)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could make colonoscopy preparation more comfortable by reducing hunger, without compromising the doctor's ability to see the colon clearly.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with no phase designation, so results are preliminary. The supplement is not transparent, so it might still affect visualization quality.
