Sure, cut back on the syrup if you like, and if you feel fine! I cut back also, but only to 1 1/2 spoons. You'll probably be ok with 1 spoon too, see how you feel.

Good for you, braving the salt water flush! I think you'll be surprised at how horrible it *isn't*! You are supposed to do it in the morning, though. If you do it at night, it supposedly washes away many of the nutrients in the lemonade, and also lessens its effectiveness by washing it out before it has a chance to dissolve gunk in your intestines.

Please post back after you try it! Good luck!

Best wishes on your SWF. I haven't done one yet, just using the Smooth Moves Tea at night.

I am using about 1 1/2 TBSP maple syrup. The Master Cleanse book says its OK to use less (but you might be more tired.) The book says we should have at least 6 lemonades, but I haven't got there yet. I only had 5 yesterday, and 4 so far today. Will probably only have 1 more because I still have another dose of Paragone and then a P&B shake to do tonight. My guess is that its probably OK for short term (hopefully someone with more experience will post). I know I need to bring mine up to 6/day if I am going to last 30 days.
