More details
Schüssler salts, also known as cellular tissue remedies, are therapeutic preparations made from diluted mineral salts, developed in the second half of the 19th century by Dr. Wilhelm Schüssler, a German homeopathic physician. This method, which he initially called “biochemical therapy,” lies at the intersection of biochemistry and homeopathy.
Inspired by Justus von Liebig’s work in agriculture, Schüssler posited that diseases result from an intracellular mineral imbalance. According to him, every cell in the body contains essential minerals that ensure its proper functioning. A deficiency or imbalance of these elements would cause damage to the affected tissue.
“No bones without calcium, no blood without iron, no cartilage without silica, and no saliva without potassium chloride”—Wilhelm Schüssler
His goal: to restore mineral balance within cells using homeopathic dilutions of these minerals, in order to reactivate the body’s natural repair and self-healing mechanisms. This is known as biodynamic micromineral therapy.
Schüssler salts are prepared from naturally occurring minerals such as iron sulfate, potassium carbonate, or sodium phosphate, which are diluted and potentized according to homeopathic principles. They are administered in low doses, not to replace minerals in the body, but to stimulate its ability to absorb and regulate them.
There are 12 Schüssler salts, each corresponding to a specific physiological need:
Schüssler salts are available in the form of tablets or homeopathic granules, to be dissolved in the mouth or in a little water. They can also be applied topically, particularly for skin conditions.
Beyond physical ailments, several Schüssler salts are also used to address emotional or psychological imbalances. Their use in complementary medicine has expanded to areas such as:
It is essential to emphasize that these salts are not intended to replace conventional medical treatment but rather to serve as a complementary part of a holistic approach to health.
Schüssler salts are currently offered by the French homeopathic laboratories Boiron and Lehning, either as single-salt preparations (one salt) or as complexes (a combination of several salts). These preparations are available in tablet or granule form, which are easy to take and suitable for daily use.
Unlike conventional minerals, these remedies work by stimulating the body’s natural absorption process without overburdening it. They are well tolerated, have no side effects, and can be used at any age, under professional guidance.
