Tissue Salts (AKA Mineral Salts, Cell Salts)

Schuessler homeopathic tissue salts are available in many health food storesThe body takes what it needs of these mineral salts and disposes of the rest

The Theory of Schussler's Biochemic Method

The idea upon which Biochemic Therapeutics is based is the physiological fact that both the structureand vitality of the organs of the body are dependent upon certain necessary quantities and properapportionment of its organic constituents. These remain after combustion of the tissues and form theashes.

The inorganic constituents are, in a very real sense, the material basis of the organs and tissues of thebody, and are absolutely essential to their integrity of structure and functional activity. According toSchussler’s theory, any disturbance in the molecular motion of these cell salts in living tissues, caused bya deficiency in the requisite amount, constitutes disease, which can be rectified and the requisite

equilibrium re-established by administering the same mineral salts in small quantities. This is supposedto be brought about by virtue of the operation of chemical affinity in the domain of histology; and hencethis therapeutic procedure is styled by Schussler the Biochemic method, and stress is laid on the fact thatit is in supposed harmony with well-known facts and laws in physiological chemistry and allied sciences.

In Biochemic system as the principle is based on deficiency of the salts, we can use more than oneremedies at a time, unlike homeopathic system.

By Jacqueline Young

The biochemic system of medicine was created towards the end of the 19th century by Dr WilhelmHeinrich Schussler, who concluded that if the body became deficient in essential minerals, thisimbalance would cause health problems.

How to use tissue salts

Dr Schuessler identified 12 vital mineral - or tissue - salts essential for normal body function at a cellularlevel. He determined that imbalance in one or more of these salts led to specific health problems anddiseases, but that balance could be restored by taking the necessary mineral element.

Tissue salts are taken in minute doses in the form of tablets, which are molded rather than compressed so

they can be dissolved under the tongue and quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. They are preparedaccording to the homeopathic method of trituration (repeated mixing of the mineral salt with lactose insuccessive dilutions). However, biochemic remedies are distinct from homeopathic ones in that they'rehomogenous (the same as) and are used to directly replace deficiencies in the cells, rather than

heterogeneous (diverse) and based on the 'law of similarity' and used to cure indirectly.

Tissue salts are generally taken in a 6x potency with a dosage of four tablets for adults and two tabletsfor children taken three times a day until the condition is cured. In acute cases, the remedy can be takenevery half an hour until relief is obtained.

They may be taken individually or in combinations of usually two or three tissue salts. They can either

Nat.mur (Water Distributor)Natrium muriaticum (sodium chloride)Function: water metabolism and moisturising the tissues, assisting glandular function and digestion.

Recommended for: dryness or excessive moisture in any part of the body, watery colds with runny noseand sneezing, dry lips, itchy skin and eyes, hay fever, loss of taste or smell, headaches with constipation,diarrhoea, thirst, a craving for salty foods, poor-quality sleep, fatigue and feelings of hopelessness. Canbe immediately applied to bites and stings.

Nat. phos (Acid Neutraliser)Natrium phosphate (sodium phosphate)Function: neutralises acid in the body and aids in the assimilation of fatty acids; helps to regulatefunction of the liver and gall bladder.

Recommended for: acidity, stomach upset, heartburn, colic, gout, indigestion and other gastric problems,rheumatic pain and stiffness, joint swelling, smelly feet or body odour, jaundice, nausea and cholesterolproblems.

Nat. sulph (Water Eliminator)Natrium sulphate (sodium sulphate)Function: eliminates excess water and helps maintain the health of the liver and gall bladder.

Recommended for: water retention, flu, liver and gall bladder problems including jaundice, hepatitis,biliousness and digestive upset, nausea, bitter taste in mouth and rheumatism.

Silica (Toxic Eliminator)

Silicea (silicon dioxide)Function: cleanser and detoxifier; present in blood, skin, nails, hair, bones, connective tissue and mucusmembranes.

Recommended for: pimples, spots, boils, sties, abscesses and any other type of skin condition with pussuppuration; cracked, brittle or split nails, gland disorders, involuntary twitching of eyes or face muscles,stress; badly conditioned, dull looking hair; rheumatic pain.Cautions: since one of its effects is to promote expulsion of foreign matter from the body, silica shouldn'tbe used for long periods by those with any type of implant.

All 12-in-1 minerals are provided in a Schussler homeopathic tissue salt remedy known as "Bio-Plasma" which is recommended in the book Tissue Salts for those unsure which remedy best fitstheir symptoms. Tissue salts in homeopathic form bypass problems of digestion and absorptionwhich may have been the cause of the deficiency state to begin with, as well as mineral deficientfoods in the diet.--DJT

Homeopathic Tissue SaltsBiochemistry is the chemistry of living tissue. During the 19th century noted biochemists andphysiological scientists discovered the fundamental importance of specific inorganic (MINERAL)elements to the normal life and functioning of all of the cells of the human body. Twelve inorganicmineral elements were isolated and their res ective functions researched. Dr. Schuessler named these

8/12/2019 Tissue Salts (Aka Cell Salts, Mineral Salts)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/tissue-salts-aka-cell-salts-mineral-salts 4/5

mineral elements ‘tissue salts’, in varying combinations they make up every cell in your body.

Dr. Wilhelm Heinrich Schuessler, a Doctor of Medicine, biochemist and physicist, recognised thesignificance of these research findings. He theorised that these inorganic minerals were vital for thenormal functioning and health of bodily tissues. Further, deficiencies in any of these tissue salts wouldnaturally lead to dysfunction and ill health. Therefore, correcting the deficiency by ingestion of thedepleted tissue salts must be a vital factor in the healing of illness in the physical body. He clinicallytested his theory on his own patients with excellent results. In the process of his clinical practice/researchhe devised and refined a simple but effective method of therapy. He researched the role and function of each tissue salt within the body.

From this he was able to define what type of physical disorder a disturbance or deficiency of each of thetissue salts would cause. He clinically tested his theories on his own patients with excellent results.

Physical symptoms vary depending on the tissue salt lacking. Therefore tissue salts are prescribedaccording to the symptoms present. Every sign of imbalance in every system of the body is taken intoaccount when the practitioner is devising the most appropriate treatment regime.

Tissue salts work effectively in conjunction with other forms of healing as they address the imbalance ona cellular level. They are absolutely harmless, as they are inorganic elements which naturally occur inthe body. They cause no known side- effects. They cannot become toxic in the body due to overdose asthey merely replace what is deficient; the body expels any excess.

Tissue Salts are prescribed by a qualified therapist.

The Twelve Tissue Salts (similar to information above)

CALCIUM FLUORIDE: Elasticity Mineral The component of cells of bones, tooth enamel, skinfibres, muscle tissue and blood vessels. Signs of deficiency include varicose veins, eczema,piles/hemorrhoids, sluggish circulation, poor enamel of teeth, brittle nails, cracked or cut skin.
