Schuessler Tissue Salts

are readily available at most health food stores and are a simple way for you to take control of your health

Tissue salts are 12 minerals, prepared by the process of homeopathic trituration. They were first described by Dr W. H. Schuessler, a German biochemist and physicist, in the 1800’s. He determined that certain minerals were required for effective cellular activity.

Mineral deficiencies may occur under a variety of conditions. This may include ...

1. diet, due to unavailable nutritious food or poor food choices

2. inability of the body to absorb the minerals from a correct diet due to a compromised digestive system

3. drug interactions

Taking a material mineral supplement may help. If taking a material supplement, taking the corresponding tissue salt may help with the absorption of the supplement. Since tissue salts are prepared by trituration, the body’s cells are more readily able to assimilate the mineral.

Tissue salts are usually selected on presenting symptoms, organ affinity or deficiency. Tissue salts are often available in a variety of combinations prepared by the manufacturer which target an organ specificity. They are readily available at most health food stores and are a simple way for you to take control of your health.

Years ago, I was in Yahoo Group which had a world wide membership of many homeopaths of all levels of skill. There I learnt that Tinnus Smits and David Little had set up a clinic in Nepal, 1995, to help the people there as health care was very minimal. They successfully trained locals to work with the tissue salts and claimed it had helped many conditions they thought would not be possible using only tissue salts. The clinic is still going and has developed into a more comprehensive enterprise now https://homeopathynepal.weebly.com/

As tissue salts are in a low potency, usually 6X, they need to be taken more frequently. This is usually 3-4 times a day for at least a month. They may be taken more frequently in very acute situations. They need to be crushed in the mouth and not swallowed whole, to increase the absorption of the mineral. The pills may also be crushed and added to a water bottle to sip throughout the day.
