About Biochemic Remedies or Tissue SaltsThe biochemic cell salts are known by many names like tissue salts, cell salts, biochemic remedies, tissue remedies etc.
The system of treatment with these salts is known as the biochemic system of treatment. This system was firmly put into place by Dr W H Schussler, a German doctor. Though prior to him, Dr Samuel Hahnemann did treat with these salts but to Dr W H Schussler goes the credit of bringing this system of treatment to the fore, by doing research and explaining the principles on which this treatment system is based. These are chemical salts but are not used in the crude form. Since chemistry is applied to the study of the chemical processes in the cells, the system is called the biochemic system of treatment. The cell salts are twelve in number and are found in every cell of a living organism. They are inorganic minerals and are present in varying proportions in the cell but in perfect harmony and balance. Dr W H Schussler analysed the ashes of dead bodies and found that they contained twelve inorganic salts, in certain fixed amounts, which he later termed as the cell salts. He said that these were indispensable to health. These salts exist in very minute amounts and in a molecular form and thus have to be supplied in an extremely dilute form so that they can reach the affected cell when it given. Disease manifested when the balance of these salts is disturbed due to the deficiency of one salt or a few salts. When the necessary salts are given, health is restored. Since these salts are in very diluted concentrations in the cell, the crude form of the mineral salts do not work. They have to be diluted by a process called trituration and during this process the salts get potentiated, thereby increasing their curative value. Once diluted, these salts are easily absorbed by the mucous membrane of the mouth and the alimentary canal. They reach the cells via the circulating blood. In the market, the cell salts are available in potencies - 3 X, 6 X, 12 X, 30 X and 200 X. These are the potencies that are generally used. The tissue salts are available as tablets. The tablets can be swallowed whole or powdered and taken. However, my personal experience is that the salts act faster when they are dissolved in water. In this way, the mucous membrane immediately takes up the required salt and transports it to the cell in the molecular form. Moreover, less quantity of the cell salt is needed. The Twelve Tissue Salts Or Biochemic Remedies• Calcarea Flourica (CF) - Calcium Flouride. It benefits in bones and tissue affections, varicose veins, weak ligaments, neuralgia, prolaspse of the uterus, lymphatic gland disorders and skin problems.
• Calcarea Phosphorica (CP) - Calcium Phosphate. It benefits in anemia, slow bone development, delayed walking and teething, diarrhea, eczema and leucorrhea in young girls. • Calcarea Sulphuricum (CS) - Calcium sulphate. It purifies blood, removes pus from tissues and heals wounds, benefits the liver, bile and blood. • Ferrum Phosphoricum (FP) - Iron phosphate. It is an anti inflammatory salt, useful in fevers, bleeding, increases hemoglobin and maintains health of blood vessels. • Kalium Muriaticum (KM) - Potassium chloride. It is a detoxifier, anti inflammatory, beneficial to the glandular system, digestive, helps blood and nerve tissues and is a decongestant. • Kalium Phosphoricum (KP) - Potassium phosphate. It is a nerve and brain salt, useful in injuries to the head and in mental states. • Kalium Sulphuricum (KS) - Potassium sulphate. It helps in metabolism, diseases of the skin, sinus affections and joint diseases. • Magnesia Phosphoricum (MP)-Magnesium phosphate. It is an anti spasmodic and pain reliever, useful in headache, migraine, bed wetting, hiccups and bladder stones. • Natrum Muriaticum (NM)-Sodium chloride. It helps in proper water distribution in the body, in skin conditions, colds, benefits the mucous membrane, relieves bites, stings and sunstroke, useful in heart failure, menstrual problems and diarrhea. • Natrum Phosphoricum (NP)-Sodium phosphate. It is an antacid, maintains acid-alkaline balance, an arthritic pain reliever, stress buster, nerve and brain tonic, useful in itching, gout and digestive ailments. • Natrum Sulphuricum (NS)-Sodium sulphate. It is a liver cleanser, diuretic, detoxifier, regulates body fluids, useful in rheumatic pains, gout, swellings, abdominal complaints and insomnia. • Silicea (S)-Silicon Dioxide. It conditions tissues and skin, benefits nails, hair, removes foreign matter from the body, helps in stress, tiredness and improves memory. Effective And No Side EffectsThe biochemic system of treatment is the safest, cheapest and side effects free. It can be used in day to day ailments very easily. One need not rush to the doctor for small problems and it is always at hand when you need it. Even in emergencies, you have something at hand before medical help arrives.
This system can benefit everyone, young, old or a child. Children will like the faintly sweet taste of these tablets. I would suggest that you use it in day to day afflictions like cough, colds and fever and see for yourself, the miraculous power these small pills have. On a personal level, I am using these cell salts when ever I need to and have even used them on my pets with extremely satisfactory results. My article "A Simple Medicines Guide To Schuessler's Biochemic Tissue Remedies or Cell Salts" goes into detail on this alternate therapy. Do read it. Some Useful Videos |
