I purposefully waited to discuss the saltwater flush in detail
until today. I wanted to go through the experience again, fresh, so that I
could be sure of my feelings about it. They haven’t changed. I do not enjoy this
portion of the cleanse overly much.
However, it’s really not as terrible as you might think. The
hardest part is getting down a quart of saltwater within a fairly short time.
For me, it’s not the saltwater as much as it is that it would be hard for me to
chug down a quart of anything within
a short period of time. I’m more of a sipper kind of gal.
Getting It Down
I will say this…using very warm water—almost hot—to do the
flush is much more pleasant than using cold or lukewarm water. I learned last
time that you can easily pretend that the flush is a very salty broth when it’s
warm. When it’s not—gag! Also, it’s important to remember that it’s 2
TEAspoons, not 2 tablespoons of seasalt to a quart of water.
