Things You'll Need:
- 2 cups of water
- sea salt
- pure honey
- lemon or lime for taste
-
Step 1
Mix two tablespoons of sea salt in 24 ounces of hot water and have it on an empty stomach. Heat it like you would a pot of tea, stirring until the salt completely dissolves. The liquid should taste noticeably salty. Add a little more salt, if you need, to get a "salty broth". This gives rise to bowel movements. Make sure the salt is pure and has not been treated chemically. The untreated sea salt also does not raise blood pressure and therefore, is not harmful.

Step 2
Juice from a Lime/Lemon - 2 teaspoons. The lemon will encourage the intestines to contract and speed along bowel movements. Honey can be added for taste- it is also good for fighting intestinal infections.
No need to go hungry- eat a light lunch- salad or soup. Eating processed foods will diminish the effects of cleaning the colon. -
Step 3
You should expect to make trips to the toilet throughout the morning. Some people finish cleaning their bowels in a couple of hours, others take several days. Continue to drink water or lemonade thru the day. This process of cleansing can take from a few days to a few weeks based on previous diet and exercise routines. If you have a history of constipation you may want to continue this plan every few days for several weeks.
