  • How many carbs are in a saline laxative?

    I bought a bottle of it recently, but it doesn't specify how many carbs it has. Does anyone know?

      I'm curious why you are going to take that. Those are harsh on your system and should only be used when you're prepping for a medical procedure.

      If you need fiber, try the flaxmeal or psyllium recommended in the book.

        Really? I had no idea. I drank about 3/4ths of the bottle, I assumed it was just a normal laxative.

          You didn't take in carbs, but you have to count the sweetener. Save your money - take your fiber. Or if you must, a stimulant laxative like Senna Prompt, which is fiber plus senna extract in capsules, or a couple big pinches of epsom salts dissolved in water is a MUCH cheaper way to have a saline laxative, and is useful for otherthings as well.
