This is a reply to # 578,686Just the opposite for me. I find everyone of those teas gives me cramps. Hate it. To each his own. Rather gag than hurt. Used to do both as recommended, but no more. Getting too old for that pain routine. Just my 2 cents.

MoreThis is a reply to # 578,745I was getting cramps alot on "Smoth Move" as well. I'd take it in the mornig and then be in pain most of the day. BUT then I started taking right before bed. It takes about 6 to 8 hours to "kick in", so the "urge" would wake me up around 4am or 5am I'd do my buissness for about a half hour and then I was able to go back to sleep cramp free and wake up cramp free.
It's worth a shot.- Re: Laxative Tea Cramps trishg60

This is a reply to # 578,705Thanks for the advice about chicken broth. I was frightened to do the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) because of the taste making me gag, but after reading to imagine it as chicken broth I did and it went down so easy and actually tasted pretty good! I'm on day 2 and still going strong thanks to all these answers to my questions

If you have sensibilities to most foods, like I do, could be that you are just "fragile" inside. I mean, you might have a delicate digestive system, where your stomach has great difficulty digesting things that are refined or processed. I had all the problems in the world, from hypoglycimia to general digestive problems, and I found that by switching to organic-yet more expensive-but better for my belly, my problems disapeared. I first did a Herbal Detox Cleanse, by Wild Rose where you take herb supplements (all prepare for you and organic) combined with a certain diet. Certain foods had to be eaten regularly because they helped clean out the toxins. Examples: Almond butter on rice cakes, lots of fresh ginger, onions, garlic, leafy greens, wild salmon and other fish, organic meats, tofu, legumes... There's a list, it comes with a recipe book for people who are NOT chefs! It's great. That could help you, if it's your first time, but it's a tough one. BUT, giving a break to your digestive system WILL FEEL GOOD. In most cases, the things that make you sick are the things you eat, not the things you don't.
good luck

I am very excited now because tasting the lemonade was sort of pleasant, and I know I can do it. What I do fear is my staying power. I am determined to focus on the positive aspects, and have typed up little affirmations to put all over the place to remind me of why I am doing this. The food is notleaving the planet, but I might if I don't take control of the situation now. I have only been out of sorts with my health for about a year, so I know I can get it back. If I wait any longer, it will be that much harder.
I think this list is helping, and I urge newcomers to read the archived posts for inspiration and support.
Everyone have a great fasting day tomorrow.

I started this diet on Monday Morning. I did not feel hungry at all. I got off Wednesday evening because I had lost 6 pounds. I took an herbal supplement colon cleanser also

This is a reply to # 578,703Well, now that I have read all that you folks have had to say on saltwater flushes, I'm not sure that I want to even start the fast. It has taken me 6 months to get up the nerve to start the doing the fast. Threw out lemons that I bought and let rot. Just bought more lemons. I'm really worried about how it will affect me, as I have digestive problems, and a spastic colon. I vomit at the drop of a hat, too. I couldn't do some of the tests the Dr. wanted because I couln't tolerate them without vomiting.
I thought I would ease my way into it.
I use licorice tea for a laxative tea. Licorice is a natural laxative. It works great. I like the tase, also.- Re: salt water flush Mickey42

This is a reply to # 578,707I have not done the salt water flush. Can I use any kind of salt or there is a special one. I think all are just bad.

This is a reply to # 578,713I must have BIZZAR taste buds... The first time i tried the salt flush i loved the taste! I always drink my water at room temp, and that is how i've done the flush. I also now include 1/4 tsp to 16oz water in my drinker. I'm spoiled w/the good taste now and don't even like water without the salt. My like of the taste could be that i've been into raw-foods diets for years?
Day four of the fast and loving it. Never felt so much energy and clarity of mind. No hunger pains or food-desires. The Master Clense is great.
I don't know if this is right/wrong while on the Master Clense...
For years w/my blood type A I've started my day (after about a quart of water before my "Emergen-C" vitamin drink...now i'm adding the salt!) with 4oz of organic-fresh-brewed coffee, as it is beneficial for my blood type.
Also, for years, after my evening meal (i eat 6-7 mini-meals a day: each ~400cal) I've had 4oz of dry red wine for the health bennies to blood type A's. I've continued this on the fast as it is part of my daily norm for years.
My system seems fine, and all is working good, body fat at 7-9%.
Lean, fit, and blessed at 45 :)
Cheers,
Thom

This is a reply to # 578,714Hi Thom,
I have read a few things about type A blood. I'm extremely new at this whole thing. I was planning on starting The Master Cleanse this week-end. I am also type A-. Is there something I should know??
I'm really scared. I have had very bad eating habits in my 56 years of life and I want and need to make some positive changes. When I heard of the Master-Cleanse I thought this was my answer.
Even though I've had nine children, I don't like pain. I'm scared of the pain my cleanse will put me through. I have water fasted for 17 days before with no problems but I was a lot younger. I'm not worried about being hungry, just the pain!!
Any positive suggestions to help me stay on this fast?? Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you so much!!
Lorie

Also, I made the mistake of putting 2 tsp. of the salt into a 20 oz. bottle. I had already put the other tsp into another 20 oz bottle so I had to drink it with both teaspoons in it. The effect was still the same, if not greater in intensity. Just a note to the person that might try the salt first and then chase it with the water. It might work as my experience suggests that more salt in a lower concentration of water produced a similar if not greater effect.
Good luck everyone!
