MC with High Blood Pressure

I am looking for alternatives to the salt water flush and also to smooth move tea. I was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure and would prefer not to do the SWF. In the past I used celtic Sea Salt , which is probably the best thing to use. I may give in and do one or two SWF's during my 10+ day fast, but I doubt it. I am also looking for a tea without licorice, which I know is not good for HBP. Again in the past I would drink the tea at night and then sometimes in the morning if I was unable to do the SWF. Obviously I want the benefits of the Master-Cleanse and flushing my system without any adverse health effects. Any suggestions? Thanks.- Re: MC with High Blood Pressure clear001

I've only done one 14 day Master Cleanse, but I started it with high blood pressure too. Like you, I was very concerned about doing a salt water flush so I used senna instead. I bought senna pods & made a tea with about 6 pods every morning & night (seep them for 3 to 5 minutes). The resulting BMs were about 6 - 7 hours later for me (with only minor urgency). The only concern with senna is that you may become dependant on it. I used it for 14 days and I did have a bit of trouble for 2 or 3 days once I finished the Master-Cleanse but then all was back to normal.
What I also found was that I had to stop taking my BP meds after a few days on the Master-Cleanse as my BP was lowered so much! I loved that result but I'm afraid it only lasted a couple of weeks for me - maybe my old food habits creeping in again? I've read here that hawthorn berries and cayenne may lower blood blood pressure (I'm testing them at the moment) - maybe that's something you could check out for yourself?
Good luck with your cleanse!- Re: MC with High Blood Pressure girlskiier

This is a reply to # 1,192,977Thanks. I have been drinking senna tea instead (don't remember the brand, but there is no licorice in it). I only drink it at night, not in the morning. When I wake up I go to the bathroom. Like you I do not want to get dependent. I think I am eliminating enough in the morning by just drinking it at night. Also like you I stopped taking the BP meds while on the MC. However, I don't expect the Master-Cleanse to lower my BP. While diet, exercise and weight do add to high BP, for some people like me it's more hereditary. Thanks again and good luck.

My BP is hereditary too. I developed it at 40 which is when my mother did. I really do suspect the cayenne had some beneficial effect. I wish our bodies could spit out some printout telling us what they REALLY need!
All the best girlskiier.
