Making The Salt Water Laxative More Tolerable

Here’s another question from a reader about the salt water flush.

“I’m on my third day of cleansing now. I bought your master cleanse book online and following it. I’m having a hard time doing the salt water laxative. I’m doing the herbal laxative and psyllium, but I read that salt water flushes are better. I am trying my best to drink it but I really can’t stand the salt water taste, especially with warm water and having to drink 25 ounces of it. It makes me want to throw up. I tried mixing it with 1/2 cup water instead and that i can tolerate and follow it with a lot of water afterwards. is that ok? Will that have the same effect?”

I have to admit that the salt water laxative is one of the least desirable parts of the master cleanse. I haven’t met anyone who actually enjoys the taste of the salt water laxative, but it really does do a fantastic job of increasing the frequency of your eliminations.

To make it easier to get down you can, as the reader above mentioned mix a small amount of salt water that you can get down in one or two gulps then follow it with a big glass of plain water.

Another tip that might help would be to mix the salt water laxative with cold water instead of warm water.
