Does salt in hot water really make you go to the bathroom?

Question

I was getting some advice about how to stay regular (p**p) and some advice to me was to drink hot water with salt. But I can't find anything that says that that's true. Does anyone know if salt water helps clear you old? If it's true, why? I though sodium retained the junk in your body?

Answer 1

eat fiber fruit etc.

Answer 2

Taking excess salt causes you to go to the bathroom frequently. The advice you have got is wrong advice . You may end up with another disease due to excess salt.
