I'd probably do calc fluor, calc phos and calc sulph actually.

I'm so glad you are liking them! They are so easy to use, understand and enjoy. They are fabulous little tools.

This is really interesting. I've never heard of cell salts before. Can you only buy them online?

What would you give for my 2.5 yo DD with GI issues/malabsorption, multi-infection, barely any hair, weak concave toenails? She has plaque on her teeth but I don't think any other damage.

You can get them online and in some HFS. I like www.1800homeopathy.com for an online source...but many places do sell them. Hylands also makes them. They are generally a lactose base, but if you really want to you can find them in a sucrose base or even in liquid form.

Definitely silica and perhaps a few others depending on how symptoms present.

Thanks, everybody! I have some money from our tax return, so I may be able to swing buying the whole kit plus the book from 1800homeopathy, plus the bioplasma. I'm excited to try this, and have it as a resource.

Mom61508, ugh on the five times before midnight! On days like that I just have to plan for being sick the next day. I am able to stave it off somewhat by taking adrenal glands the next morning, and I also do raw liver, but all the adrenal support in the world doesn't do much for very long if I don't get sleep. I hope we're both getting some more soon!! Thanks for commiserating.

Yes, his toenails grow pretty well, too -- and they don't have ridges on them. He does have weird toenails, though -- very similar to his father's and his aunt's, so I just assumed it was hereditary. His hair grows fine, and his cradle cap isn't too bad, but with the ridges I just thought it might use some biotin. Maybe I'll just try the biotin, and if I get detox reactions I'll stop it. I have the same question about iodine, and feel sort of paralyzed by the whole idea of detox, anyway -- just afraid to try stuff at high levels, not wanting to do any harm. But at the same time, I want my babe to have enough biotin and iodine! And I understand the idea of loading doses to correct deficiencies. I just can't make myself do it. I'm a little stubborn about the whole-foods idea. It just doesn't feel right to put huge amounts of anything, separated from its normal food state, in my body.

OK, I'm rambling. Sleep deprivation. I'll keep reading this thread -- thanks for all the good info!

I cut off a piece of my thumb. I am currently using ferrum phos. What else should I be using? I am looking for improving cell regeneration. I have some thumb to grow back!

Yeah, you may want to call PB and do a consult with her if you can swing it!

Isn't silica supposed to help with skin regeneration or am I making that up?

Ouch! Hope you heal quick.

Do you have the Biochemic Handbook to look in? I will think of things for you.

well, make sure you are taking adequate zinc, and I would personally bath the area with calendula and hypericum (10:1 water to tincture) regularly to stave of infection and promote skin healing. In terms of salts I'd use calc sulph, ferrum phos and silica. Hope that helps! Feel better!

So, just to be clear on the consultation thing, I poked around on your website, it sounds like you're willing to discuss nutrition and supplements and flower essences and homeopathy and, well, basically everything you know? That fits in the allotted time, of course!

pretty much. Homeopathy is brilliant, but it cannot shine in the proper way if there isn't a good foundation. If I see that there's a dietary issue that must be addressed, I'm not going to ignore it. If a person will be well supported with flower essences, I'm going to do that. I also will offer a different perspective on things if needed. Every case is different and is addressed as such.

After getting a whole homeopatihic kit, I discovered cell salts, so got them in 30C potency, because that's what the rest of the stuff was. I now have about 60- 70 remedies.

Do you take cell salts together with other remedies, or it's either or? Will it not work in 30C?

My 5 year old has a cavity too, so will the 30C daily work? For how long do I need to give it?

I just all these a month ago, so I really can't spend more money now on new stuff.

Thanks, Ana

Hi there. I have most people take cell salts as support for remedies. However I think the salts are a great tool for people to use on their own, too. This is step one of getting into self care in my opinion.

Cell salts at 30C are not traditional potencies. I wouldn't use them the way we are discussing here. The cell salts are meant to be nutritional and are better used at low potencies. You are trying to give your body the nutrients, not just the energetic information if that makes sense.

If you were going to use the ones you have I'd talk to your practitioner to let them know that they are such high potencies to make sure they are okay with that.

Some of them have similar pictures to the identical substances in homeopathy-some do not. They really are a different thing all together and using higher potencies you are sort of bridging the gap.

They *may* work for the issues you are addressing, but you may need to individualized input. I'd actually recommend *if you can swing it* to get the particular cell salts you need (not the whole line right now) at 6X. That way you can follow a cell salt dosing schedule.

Is there a salt for an acute situation of excessive coughing?
post #100 of 1199
2/22/10 at 1:02pm
mag phos for the spasms...other than that yes. But can you talk more about it? Does anything come up? if so, what color? better outside? with heat?

here's a brief description...you can see many salts have cough listed, but they are all a bit different. This is a very cursory view and not at all in depth but it's a start.
