Schuessler Cell Salts / Biochemic Tissue Salts 

http://homeopathicremediesandtreatment.com/Biochemic-Tissue-Salts-Schuessler-Cell-Salts.php

Dr. Wilhelm Heinrich Schuessler, a noted German biochemist and homeopath, created the biochemic system. He identified twelve biochemic minerals present in every cell of the human body. A correct balance of these minerals must be maintained for the proper functioning of body tissues. Dr. Schuessler believed that a deficiency in any one mineral would lead to a disturbance in the cell life where the deficiency occurred. When there is a perturbation of cell life, a favorable environment for bacterial growth and illness is created. Health problems arise when there is a deficiency in any of these salts.

Dr. Schuessler's biochemic salts are also known as tissue salts or cell salts. These salts are prescribed in low decimal potency to repair deficiencies at the cellular level.

Tissue salts are prepared according to homeopathic principles and are used to supply the body with the missing cell nutrients.

Tissue salts come in chewable, tablet format where lactose (milk sugar) is the main ingredient. Therefore, they are not recommended for anyone who is lactose intolerance.

The Twelve Biochemic Salts (Tissue salts / Cell Salts) Clinical Treatment Remedies

Calcarea fluorica (calcium fluoride)

Calc fluor is called the elasticity mineral. It is found in the cells of the bone, enamel of the teeth, and in the fibers of the skin. It is generally indicated for relaxed muscle tissue. A deficiency of Cal fluor may lead to the following conditions:

Tooth decay

Fistula

Internal hemorrhoids

Hernia

Anal fissures

Synovitis

Eczema

Cataract

Psoriasis

Varicose ulcer

Calcarea phosphorica (calcium phosphate)

Calc phos is called the cell mineral. This salt is needed for the formation of new cells, especially bone cells. A deficiency of Calc phos may lead to the following conditions:

Children with weak bones

Abnormal bone growth

Difficulty teething

Poor assimilation

Digestive disorders

Excessive perspiration

Curvature of the spine

Suppurating wounds

Skin abscess

Furuncles

Leukorrhea

Otitis

Herpes

Acne

Ferrum phosphoricum (iron phosphate)

Kalium sulfuricum (potassium sulphate)

Kali sulph is similar to Ferrum phos. It helps carry oxygen to the blood. It is present in all cells that contain iron. This salt is well indicated for skin conditions. A deficiency of Kali sulph may lead to the following conditions:

Psoriasis

Lupus

Eczema

Bronchial asthma

Dropsy

Headaches

Dyspepsia

Lack of perspiration

Rheumatoid arthritis

Athlete’s foot

Alopecia

Dandruff

Leukorrhea

Vertigo

Magnesia phosphoricum (magnesium phosphate)

Mag phos is found in the nervous system. It has antispasmodic influences over muscle tissue. A deficiency of Mag phos may lead to the following conditions:

Behavioral disorders in children

Spasmodic asthma

Spasmodic cough

Spasmodic menstrual cramps

Spasm of the eyelid

Angina pectoris

Convulsion

Double vision

Epilepsy

Palsy

Muscular cramps

Muscular twitching

Colitis

Natrum muriaticum (sodium chloride)

Nat mur has affinity with water distribution. It ensures a balance of moisture throughout the organism. It is indicated in conditions where too much water or dryness appears in the system. A deficiency of Nat mur may lead to the following conditions:

Watery discharge that burns and irritates

Hydrocele

Constipation

Dry skin

Chapped lips

Colds with watery discharge

Asthma

Excessive saliva

Bronchitis

Watery vesicle

Vaginal dryness

Pleurisy

Profuse perspiration

Dry cough

Dry nose

Hay fever

Enuresis

Natrum phosphorica (sodium phosphate)

Nat phos is an essential salt for the digestive tract. It neutralizes acids and helps with the assimilation of fats and other nutrients. This salt is well indicated for symptoms of hyperacidity. A deficiency of Nat phos may lead to the following conditions:

Over acidity of the blood

Acid reflux

Gastritis

Dyspepsia

Gastric ulcer

Gout

Excessive, sour perspiration of the feet and underarms

Jaundice

Natrum sulphuricum (sodium chloride)
