Cell salts are natural minerals found in our bodies. These minerals are found in the cells and play an important role in metabolism.

How do cell salts enter my body?

You have a supply of cell salts in your body since birth. The body consumes these salts. You get new cell salts through food. This replenishes your supply. However, it can happen that your supply of cell salts runs out. For example, due to a one-sided diet, or a certain lifestyle. This can lead to a slower metabolism in the cells, or even no metabolism at all. Cell salts are not produced by the body. If you cannot manage to get all the salts from food, you can take extra salts. This can be in the form of tablets (absorption into the mucous membrane in the mouth) or through creams or lotions (absorption through the skin).

Discovery of cell salts

The first cell salts were described in 1873 by Dr. Schüssler. He was a biochemist who researched natural remedies. Using cell theory as a basis, he investigated the causes of diseases and possible treatments for them. Gradually, Schüssler discovered 12 mineral salts. Later, his followers discovered 15 more cell salts (view the complete list of cell salts). According to Schüssler, these salts were essential for the functioning of the human body. He believed that the health of a cell and health of the body depended on the available supply of cell salts. He even went further: To prevent damage, people can take diluted cell salts, which can help fight diseases. You can buy these diluted cell salts (in tablet form) and other cell salt-based remedies in our webshop.
