  2. Fill the jug half way with lukewarm water.  Warm water dissolves the powder better than cold water.

  4. Add cold water to the fill line on the jug.  Again shake the jug well.  The full jug contains sixteen 8-oz cups.

  5. You may refrigerate the jug until you drink all of the solution.

  6. Drink all of the solution within 24 hours after mixing it.

​

• Evening before your procedure (Start at 6pm)

2. Drink one 8-oz cup of solution quickly.  The solution will not work well if sipped slowly.

3. Every 10-15 minutes, quickly drink another cup of solution.

4. Continue to drink until 12 cups, or ¾ of the solution is drank.  This may take up to 3 hours.

5. Keep the remainder of the solution to drink the day of your procedure. You may refrigerate the solution.
