Looking for white diet recipes before a colonoscopy? BowlPrep is the Colonoscopy Cookbook in your pocket — gourmet low residue and clear fluid meals for bowel prep, so you’re not stuck on sad toast. Compiled by a practising colonoscopist, with recipes by Sophie Hansen. Plan your pre-colonoscopy diet with food you’d actually want to eat — and share with whoever’s at the table. WHAT YOU GET • 20 white diet / low residue recipes for colonoscopy prep (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, clear fluids) • Clear fluid options with real flavour — broths, jellies, sorbet and more • Optional extras for partners and family who aren’t on the restricted diet • Meal planner for your bowel prep days • Shopping list that stays on your device • Private by design — we don’t collect your personal data Built for the questions everyone asks before colonoscopy: What am I going to be able to eat on a white diet? What counts as low residue? What can I drink on clear fluids? Follow your clinic’s bowel prep sheet first. BowlPrep is the food guide for those days — recipes designed for quality prep, not a replacement for your doctor’s instructions.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Parlour at Free against BowlPrep's $5.99. Parlour also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 9 months). BowlPrep's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
