Salt Water Cleanse

Has anyone gone through it? If so, how did you feel?

I swallowed too much seawater when bodyboarding and threw up everywhere. Does that count?

Saltwater is not good for you - if you lose weight on a cleanse it will be fluid and electrolytes, you’ll feel absolutely dreadful and the weight will go straight back on when you hydrate properly. You don’t need to cleanse - your liver does that for you. Follow a steady calorie deficit and you’ll lose weight safely and without unpleasantness.

This is a bad idea, as your body will try to flush out the excess sodium -- the more you drink, the more dehydrated you will get.

Oh no no no no no NO! Please don’t do this.

Cleanses are bogus. Your body is a great big cleansing filter. There are no toxins hiding in your body keeping you fat, or preventing you from losing weight. Close your ears to that nonsense.

And btw, excessive salt would make you put on (temporary) weight. Where would your mind devolve to if your weight shot up five, six, ten pounds the day following this so called cleanse? Would panic drive you to yet a different kind of cleanse?

Please reevaluate where you’re getting your “diet advice”. I’m betting this one came off Instagram or TikTok. Ay yi yi.

Read the forums and do it the safe, right and healthy way.

Tough love. Hugs to you.

I was thinking it was for a wound or piercing of some kind...for ingesting, no

Your body does not need a cleanse or detox. Our liver and kidneys do that. Do not do this fad thing as it could be dangerous.

Essentially, the colonoscopy prep. Pretty disgusting sitting on the can for 8 hours and flooding the GI tract alternately with prep solution and H2O. But, one is pretty much flushed out at the end of it if you have seen the video from your colonoscopy.

Why do it I would not know. But following the prep instructions is somewhat safe. I say somewhat because there are lawsuits all over the country from people who have lost their kidneys from prep.

But, no one in their right mind would try to formulate their own prep solution with salt to save $12. Unless they want to be on dialysis.
