I have done two teaspoons of Sea Salt with an ounce or two or water and then chased almost of glasses of water. First I got the most insane cramps, then a felt ill (like vomiting) then it barely even cleanses my bowels. I don't recommend doing it this way at all. Tough it out and drink the 2 L of water with Sea Salt ... it is much more gentler on the system and even works better.
