This is an excellent explanation of how and why to use Cell Salts!
This is where people get stuck with biochemistry.
They hear that one tablet of Kali phos contains only a tiny trace amount of potassium, while a banana contains hundreds of milligrams, and the obvious question is:
“Then why wouldn’t I just eat the banana?”
Fair question.
And the answer is — you should eat the banana.
But that is not what biochemistry is doing.
You should be eating a nutritious diet, I am not disputing that.
But biochemistry is not a dietary supplement.
It is also not a direct attempt to change your physical chemistry, as you might next guess.
The biochemic method of healing uses small, stimulating doses.
Mineral salts, ground down and prepared into a form that can be taken up without the usual effort required from food — no digestion, no enzymatic transmutations, no heavy biological strain.
The tissue salt is not asking the body to break down a whole food, pull apart its chemistry, extract what is needed, and then distribute it throughout the body.
It is already simple.
Already in a form the body recognises.
The molecules of the tissue salt move through the fluids of the body and are taken up by cells whose chemistry shows affinity for that constituent — the chemical pull seen when the cell has a need, or a place, for that mineral salt.
And we are not just simply trying to “fill up” a certain amount of this mineral.
We are attempting to correct the cellular balance, so that normal cellular function can resume, through the intelligence of the cells!
And after this, the uptake and use of minerals from normal digestion is often easier, helping speed the remedy of the deficiency.
We are not targeting a large physical change to the blood chemistry by these administrations.
We are targeting cellular function.
We are allowing the natural intelligence of the individual body cells to perform the quiet alchemy of balance through themselves.
We are giving the power back to the cell, and trusting completely in the sophistication of nature.
Biochemistry looks for the signs of cellular dysregulation, seen through the body as what allopathy terms “symptoms” or “disease”.
When we see these signs, we feed the individual cells minuscule doses — so small they do not evoke a pharmaceutical action upon the body itself.
Doses prepared to be taken up and utilised without effort by the cells, so that they might go about their works more perfectly.
Chronic cases mean we have a much greater number of cells that are dysregulated and malfunctioning, and often they have been that way for some time.
So we dose small doses regularly over time, knowing that each day the vessel as a whole may function better.
Acute cases are different.
Often the disturbance is clearer, newer, and more easily corrected.
Sometimes only a day or two is needed to bring the issue back into order.
But always, with the biochemic system of healing, we are not healing by forcing the body with medicines.
We are healing by supporting the cells, by restoring mineral balance and allowing the biology to perform its normal functions more perfectly.
By trusting the body’s own innate intelligence, and its own will to repair and thrive.
And this is why eating the banana and taking Kali phos are not the same conversation.
