MoreHello everyone,
I'm wondering if anybody can recommend a good way to completely mask the awful taste of Epsom Salts . I really have a difficult time drinking any amount of Epsom water; the awful taste generally causes me to immediately vomit. I find both olive oil and grapefruit juice delicious, and I have no problems at all drinking either one.... But the Epsom Salts damn near kill me! Anyone have any good recipes? For that matter, are there other effective ways of opening/relaxing the bile ducts? Any and all information would be most appreciated!Advertisement

This is a reply to # 1,726,095you can chase it with a little water to get the taste out of your mouth, however i have heard of people encapsulating the epsom salt, i have no idea if it works as good this way
it might not taste as bad really cold rather than room temperature.- Re: How can I best mask the taste of... hanna

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,726,131The last few years I have been putting in stevia drops
and as far as I can tell it still works fine.
When I feel my gallbladder acting up the ES still helps
in 15-20 minutes.
It still worked for the flush too since I tried it out on
my brother.

This is a reply to # 1,726,095I dissolve the Epsom Salts in grapefruit juice. Grapefruit juice often has a bitter undertone reminiscent of the loudly helling flavor of the Epsom Salts , so they mix well. I then add either maple syrup or Stevia drops to it so the grapefruit juice won't taste terribly bitter. This mix doesn't seem to affect the effectiveness of the Epsom dalts.

I found that I could tolerate pure ES but not the over-the-counter- brands.
Now I use almost a tablespoon of ES and about a teaspoon of peppermint Milk of Magnesia. Telman wrote tha ES works the best because it contains surfur which the other magnesium laxatives lack.
I've used honey after the ES.
Some people use Coka Cola.
ES capsules are available online. - Re: How can I best mask the taste of... emulsified

This is a reply to # 1,726,436I'm doing another flush today/tonight. I did it straight ES ONCE and only once. I'm with you - it sucks. I bought the largest sized capsules I could find and a capsule machine to fill them. Can't recall where I bought either - it's been about 4 years. But I end up filling up about 64 capsules. I'd rather down all those and take one mouthful of ES in water. I find I need a little extra water to help dissolve all the capsules. Other than that, I follow Hulda Clark 's recipe pretty much to the letter.

This is a reply to # 1,727,306Thanks Emster, that's a great idea. I used to have a capsule machine, maybe it's time to get another one. I know it depends on the size of the capsules, but how much Epsom/magnesium sulfate can you cram into 64 capsules? Is that about 2 tablespoons? Do you think it takes a long time for ones stomach acids to break down that many capsules? Again, I know there are different kinds and sizes of capsules.... Also, do you use pharmaceutical grade magnesium sulfate or over-the-counter Epsom Salts , perhaps with a mortar and pestle? Anyway, thanks again!

You're welcome. It's the only way I can do flushes. I don't care if the purists don't agree. I just can't stand the taste of ES no matter WHAT I disguise it in.
I can't recall where I got my capsule machine from, but I performed a google search for them and chose the one that was the least expensive.
I got my empty capsules from http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com/product/tools-and-equipment-supplies-...
I selected the largest size. To equal 2 tablespoons, it takes 16 of the 00 size, but I don't care. I take more water than they say to in Hulda Clark 's recipe, but I can't get them all down with just that little bit of water. Don't know about the stomach acid issue. I follow the Blood Type Diet and am A- and have low stomach acid to begin with, so I'm hoping the extra water is what helps.
I use regular ES sold at any store and don't crush it. I don't ever recall reading that you needed to use anything else, but I'm far from an expert.

This is a reply to # 1,726,095If you cannot stand the taste of Epsom Salt which is Magnesium Sulphate then you also use the powder form of Magnesium Citrate like this one https://goo.gl/4VMShL with same effect. The taste is citrusy just use 1 Tablespoon of Magnesium Citrate in 8 .oz of water . Take note this is an alternative for Epsom Salt and much safer without any stress on kidney.
Take a look at this Magnesium Citrate powder that im using.

I use very intensely-flavored fermented drinks like Kombucha. The electrolytes in them are also beneficial since Epsom Salts give me some diarrhea. There is a new brand of drinks I like: "Farmhouse Culture Gut Shots." They have a salty, savory taste to them, unlike the sweet taste you get from a lot of flavored kombuchas. The salty/savory flavor masks the bitter Epsom Salts better than any fruit juice.
I sipped the Epsom Salt solution, the first time I used it, just to see what it tasted like, and after I added two ounces of "Gut shots" to the mixture, I couldn't taste the bitterness at all. It totally hides the awfulness! - Re: How can I best mask the taste of... floppyduck

This is a reply to # 1,726,095I usually mix it with apple juice, acv and lemon... Also after you drink it if you suck on a lemon that kills the aftertaste and gag reflex. Epsom Salts are nasty I know!
