Apple fast/liver cleanse? Advice needed!

hello
I'm doing my second liver cleanse, but i'm stretching it out. Just eating lots of veggies and soups, taking milk thistle and dandelion, colon cleansers... Then next week I'm going to start the apple juice cleanse for 2 days. i've done it once before, you only eat and drink apple for two days and then do the oil/lemon at the end of the second night. I'm just wondering if any of you experienced flushers have tried this method with apples, and what you think of it, or if you know much about it? As far as i know, the apples help to cleanse the liver (the pectin perhaps?), and they prep the liver for the oil/lemon mixture.
Also, do you think the salt is necessary? I personally CAN NOT stand salt water. Every time i've tried it I VOMIT! not sure why, it just is that way. i will be avoiding the salts because of this, but i'm curious why drink them? I know it helps facilitate movement down there, but what else? if that's the case, could i just do psyllium?
so many healing remedies, so little time.... he he.
thank you for any advice or tips
