What homemade remedy should I use for a colon cleanse?

I want to do a colon cleanse. I have been eating healthy and exercising but my bowel movements haven’t been normal. I have been having a bowel movement every day but it’s just not as much as it used to be. I feel very bloated all the time. Even when I stop eating 3 hours before going to bed I still always wake up feeling full. I think it might also be contributed to extra water weight that I haven’t lost yet. I’m thinking of doing the master cleanse (lemonade diet) for a couple of days. Or maybe a saltwater flush? I have used magnesium citrate before but it didn’t even make me use the restroom. Anyway, any advice you have is greatly appreciated. What do you think I should do? Do you have any homemade colon cleanse recipes? Thanks!

The salt water flush is actually part of the Master Cleanse program (you do it every day that you’re on the cleanse to ensure that your system remains clean), so it sounds like the Master Cleanse might be exactly what you’re looking for. Do some more research and decide if it’s right for you, but it would definitely help address the bloating and extra water weight you describe above.
