Should I Do A Cleanse Before I Start HCG?
CLEANSING AID: SALTWATER INTESTINAL FLUSH
I promised I would explain in more detail the theory behind doing Phase 1 before the HCG Phase 2 VLCD
I am not endorsing Phase 1 but I do think a good cleanse which is part of what Phase 1 encourages can be a huge health benefit!

CLEANSING AID: INTERNAL SALTWATER BATHING
As it is necessary to bathe the outside of our bodies, so it is with the inside.
There is a great method of cleansing the colonic tract instead of doing colonics or enemas.
This method will cleanse the entire digestive tract while the colonics and enemas are said to
only reach the colon or a small part of it. Plus the ease of not having to lie on the bathroom floor waiting for something to happen and dealing with tubes etc.
Also colonics can be expensive while the salt water method is very affordable!
The directions I followed the very first time I tried this cleanse;
Saltwater Intestinal Flush DIRECTIONS:
Prepare a full quart of lukewarm water and add two level teaspoons of sea salt.
Do not use ordinary iodized salt as it will not work properly.
Drink the entire quart of salt and water first thing in the morning.
This must be taken on an empty stomach. The salt and water will not separate but will stay intact and quickly and thoroughly wash the entire tract in about one hour.
Several eliminations will likely occur.
The salt water has the same specific gravity as the blood, hence the kidneys cannot pick up the water and the blood cannot pick up the salt. This may be taken as often as needed for proper washing of the entire digestive system.
If the salt water does not work the first time, try adding a little more or a little less salt until the proper balance is found; or possible take extra water with or without salt. This often increases the activity.
Major saltwater intestinal flush TIP!
Because the salt water doesn’t taste good here is a tip that can really help get it all down.
My Revised Method;
Add the measured sea salt into only enough water to drink down quickly and still get all the salt into your system
Have the Quart of water next to you so you can start drinking the water down as a chaser after the salt water.
Personally the water didn’t need to be lukewarm but if it is too cold it can be more difficult to drink down that much water that quickly.
This method still gets the same result without having to taste salty water during the entire quart drinking experience.
It is advisable to take the herb laxative tea (my favorite Edom Labs Chiro-Klenz) the night before to loosen, then the salt water cleanse in the morning to wash it out.
Chiro-Klenz The Original Made By Edom Labs
Please note: My personal experience that the elimination did not begin after only one hour. It took longer than that when I did the original method and my revised method.
With my revised method it kicked in more quickly. So plan the day you do this accordingly so you can be close to the “throne”.
It will depend on how icky your inner is on how you will feel during the cleanse.
The 1st time I did it was way before my HCG journey so I wasn’t near as healthy as I am today.
My symptoms were a lot like having a cold. Mucus was clearing out asap. The last time I cleanse it was simply a nice cleanse for my intestinal tract.
The Salt Water Bath can do no harm at any time. The colon needs a good washing, but do it the natural way the salt water way.
Advocates for Colonics or Enemas point out the not so pretty facts about a clogged colon;
- If you are not having three bowel movements a day you have a clogged colon.
- The colon gets clogged by non-prescription and prescription drugs
- Low water and fiber consumption
- Lack of walking and exercise,
- Insufficient digestive enzymes in the food we eat, and many other factors.
- In autopsies, medical doctors have found as much as thirty pounds of undigested fecal matter in people’s colons. – ew
- Unless you clean your colon, digestion will remain slow, and metabolism will remain slow.
- Food cravings and hunger will remain high due to lack of nutrients being absorbed properly.
- You will never get a flat stomach.
