Epsom Salt and GI Troubles

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks,

Don't know how many of you were here 3-4 years ago when I was flushing so much

and getting such great results. I'm pretty healthy and now a raw foodist...but

years of awful stress and possible overexertion have given me acid reflux

(mostly the kind I can't feel) except to make my throat very irritated and the

throat clearing. Not sure what is really wrong (could be many things) ENT says

all is well throat up.

I think part of my problem is possibly gallstones...so want to do another

flush.

QUESTION: do you think the Epsom salt will irritate the problem IF it is an

ulcer? I know my esophagus is irritated at least....will the E.S. make things

worse? How about the grapefruit juice?

Thanks,

Hi

I have the same problem as you, really bad reflux. Try taking 1 spoon of apple

cider vinegar (I got the braggs brand from trader joes) before a moderate to

heavy meal. It helped me and a lot of others!

Good luck

Thanks Shefy, I have already been using the ACV. My main question is

this...will the EPSOM SALT irritate a sensitive GI tract?

Thanks,

I'm pretty sensitive and it didn't bother me much, just the taste. Try drinking

it through a straw and add lemon juice. You can gargle with warm water

afterwards too to get it off your throat.

Yeah! I despise the taste for sure. I have not done a flush for three years

because after about 10 flushes....I just could not take the E.S. for the taste.

But since then, I've seen folks say on the list that we can add lemon or

grapefruit juice to it. Cool! I prefer GF juice because once I used lemon juice

in a flush with the olive oil...and the oil sat on top of the lemon juice and I

couldn't keep any of it down (GF juice mixes with the oil). So I don't use lemon

juice in my flushes at all anymore. AND...I chug the E.S. as much as possble.

Sipping through a straw? Argh! I suppose I'll gear myself up for a flush in a

couple of months after I do this round of doxycicline for a mycoplasma

infection.

Cheers,
