Biochemistry
is the chemistry of living tissue. During the 19th century noted
biochemists and physiological 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 inorganic mineral elements were
isolated and their respective functions researched.
Dr. Schuessler named these 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 the significance of these research findings. He theorised that these
inorganic minerals were vital for the normal functioning and health of bodily
tissues. Further, deficiencies in any of these tissue salts would naturally lead
to dysfunction and ill health. Therefore, correcting the deficiency by ingestion
of the depleted tissue salts must be a vital factor in the healing of illness in
the physical body. He clinically tested his theory on his own patients with
excellent results. In the process of his clinical practice/research he 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 the tissue 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
prescribed according to the symptoms present. Every sign of imbalance in every
system of the body is taken into account 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 on a cellular level. They are absolutely harmless, as they
are inorganic elements which naturally occur in the body. They cause no known
side- effects. They cannot become toxic in the body due to overdose as they
merely replace what is deficient; the body expels any excess. Tissue Salts are prescribed by a qualified therapist.

deficiency include varicose veins, eczema, piles/hemorrhoids, sluggish
circulation, poor enamel of teeth, brittle nails, cracked or cut skin. CALCIUM
PHOSPHATE: Nutrition salt and Tonic Major
mineral component of every structure, tissue and fluid in the body except

signs include poor appetite, digestion and malabsorption. Slow metabolism; slow
healing during and after illness and trauma. Slow retarded circulation i.e..
Chilblains, spasms, pains coldness and numbness of the limbs. All bone diseases. CALCIUM
SULPHATE: Cell Healer and Blood Purifier Mineral
constituent of the liver. It helps in the removal of waste products from the
blood stream and tissues of the body. Cleanses and purifies. Deficiency signs
include acne, pimples, catarrh, gumboils, in extreme pimples can progress to
become abscesses and ulcers. Frontal headaches and neuralgia. FERRUM
PHOSPHATE: First Aide Salt Constituent

Deficiency results in thick, white, sticky secretions i.e.. Catarrh,
mucous, phlegm. Results in congestion of the body and lymphatic system, which
the body has difficulty clearing. KALI
PHOSPHATE: Nerve Nutrient Constituent
of nerve tissue and all body fluids. Important in formation and maintenance of
tissue. Vital action in the brain, nerves, muscles and blood cells. Deficiency
signs include feeling tired, weak, exhausted and stressed, nervous and edgy.
Helpful in insomnia, depression, anxiety, nervous headaches and dyspepsia. All
illness related to the brain and nervous system. KALI
SULPHATE: Skin Salt
Has a special affinity
for the cells forming the skin and mucous lining of all bodily organs. Works
with Ferr.Phos. to carry oxygen to every cell. Deficiency causes yellow coating
to tongue, yellow – green discharge from any tissue or skin surface including
skin scaling and crusting. MAGNESIUM
PHOSPHATE: Nerve Relaxant & Anti Spasmodic A
major constituent of muscles, nerves, bone, brain, spine, sperm, teeth and blood
corpuscles. It combines with albumin and water to form a fluid that nourishes

include muscle and nervous tension, sharp headaches, all types of neuralgia,
blurred vision, migraine, muscle rigidity, all types of spasming colicky pain. NATRUM
MURIATICUM: Fluid Balancer & Water distributor Also

moisture in any area of the body is a sign of deficiency of Nat. Mur. For
example fluid retention or swelling in parts of the body, skin dryness,
constipation, swollen, dry or cracked tongue. NATRUM
PHOSPHATE: Acid Neutraliser A
constituent of blood, muscle, nerve, brain cells and the fluid between cells.
Nat. Phos. is needed in all complaints related to hyper-acidity. Also regulates
