Schüssler salts are an alternative medicine therapy based on 12 mineral salts. These mineral salts help the body to balance disturbances in mineral distribution and absorption during illness, without causing side effects. The 12 essential minerals are naturally present in the human body and are consumed daily through food. However, the homeopathically prepared salts have effects beyond those of the pure minerals from food: they support important bodily functions or even make them possible again, thereby normalizing dysfunctions in the organism. This guide provides a quick and straightforward way for those who want to learn about the effects of Schüssler salts to go from their complaints to the appropriate remedy. Günther H. Heepen offers detailed instructions for self-treatment for the whole family.
