fruit yogourt and Low-Residue Diet


in my textbook fruit yogourt is excluded from a Low-Residue diet,
but plain yogourt is included,
and in the fruit section cooked or canned fruits, pears, peaches are
included.

Why can't someone have fruit yogourt if on a Low-Residue diet?

Default Re: fruit yogourt and Low-Residue Diet
Many fruit yogurts contain raw or dried fruit. Some diets will include fruit yogurt with "allowed" fruits, however.

Allowed: most canned or cooked fruits, fruit cocktail, canned applesauce, apricots, peaches (all without skin and seeds), pureed plums and ripe bananas, strained fruit juice

Disallowed: Raw or dried fruits and all berries; prune juice
