Edema/water retention

[Guest]

The last two times I did the MC I experienced serious water retention due to the saltwater flush and had to stop the flushes. What might cause this? Is there anyway to avoid it or is there an alternative to salt? When I stopped using salt or used a liquid sodium product the problem seemed to diminish.

Hi,

Just a quick response to your post. When you make the Salt water mixture, you must be sure to measure it out properly. As stated in the Master Cleanse book, the recipe is 2 tsp to 32oz of water. Stir it well. It should have the same specific gravity as your blood and therefore will not be picked up from by your kidneys.

The first time I made it, I made it wrong... I added 2 tablespoons instead of only teaspoons... so I was totally bloated and swollen. ( I generally have a problem with bloatedness) So just be careful with the mixture and Good Luck to you :)

Cheers
