Macy.Marie,
The SWF was extremely difficult to get down. YUCK!!! I also would become thirsty and retain water. I used Dr. Clark's recipe for liver cleansing and discovered epsom salt flush is much easier, equally effective, and no water retention. If you try it mix 2 tablespoons epsom salts with 1c of your lemonade. Shake it in an empty water bottle. It tastes terrible, but there's less to drink than the SWF. Drink half the mixture, wait a few hours and finish. Night time may be a more convenient time. A dab of your syrup should help get rid of the nasty taste. Anyway, good luck! Your blog is well written and detailed. Thanks for the inspiration. Colleen
