Why do barium enema preparation procedures differ?

The radiology unit I'm having mine at

(https://radiology.uchicago.edu/sites/radiology.uchicago.edu/files/uploads/Barium%20Prep.pdf)

advises patients not to drink sweetened drinks,

while this preparation procedure makes no such claim:

Why is there no uniformity in preparation procedures?
