Salts from Schüssler, what are they and what are they for?

Claudia Boni, a freelance professional who has been involved in bio-natural disciplines for a long time, accompanies people through education in correct lifestyles, yoga, meditation, Bach flowers and dr mineral salts at different stages of life. . Schussler.

The latter stated that the tissues become ill because the cells that constitute them no longer contain the mineral substances in the quantities necessary to maintain good health, so in some way we must compensate.

But beware: the emphasis on their way of working is placed on the fact that the action is not going to compensate for a quantitative metabolic deficiency, but a deficiency that can be defined as "informative", in the sense that by assuming these preparations the information so that the body makes the best use of the mineral substances of that specific salt, which are already present in it, and can absorb more even the mineral salts introduced through food.

The body and the cells are thus encouraged to "learn" how to absorb the mineral salts from the diet in sufficient quantity and in a balanced way, so as to balance and also replenish the reserves.

Here is what Claudia Boni of Sali tells us and how they changed her way of preserving well-being and helping others.

Are you a teacher on Schüssler salts at Naturopathy schools and associations: when did you discover Salts yourself? What particularly struck you about their functioning?

I met them in 2003 when I organized a conference and two seminars on the subject and I have not abandoned them since.

Their ease of use, combined with the art of visual analysis, are tools that I found simple, affordable and above all truly effective.

They are devoid of side effects, they do not create accumulation inside our body, they can also be administered to pregnant women and small children and for over 100 years they are used with great results!

Of course having experienced them personally I can attest to their effectiveness.

Why did you decide to specialize and become a lecturer?

When I heard about them for the first time, they were really still unknown here in Italy, but in the following years I realized that the sites and blogs I edited on Schüssler salts were more and more visited, and more and more questions were asked to me, so I told myself that perhaps the right time had come to make them more known.

For this reason, in addition to masters in naturopathic courses, I have developed an online preparatory course for those who do not need a certificate with hours or cannot attend my frontal courses, which allows them to learn the basics of visual analysis and biochemistry .

Dr. Hickethier's visual diagnosis: what is it?

Does your education follow the teachings of some particular doctor?

Yes, my training reflects the original teachings of dr. Schüssler and one of his main students, dr. HIckethier, to which all today's knowledge concerning visual analysis linked to Schüssler mineral salts is due.

What do Schüssler salts cure?

I don't like to talk about care: as dr. Schüssler, at a certain point, due to denatured food, stress, electromagnetism or other, it happens that the mineral salts are no longer in the right place at the right time, and from here multiple disorders can arise such as pain and discomfort, inflammation, retention, digestive problems, etc., which simply demonstrate a maldistribution or a wrong metabolization of a given salt within our cells.

Being diluted in a homeopathic way, the Salts of Schussler can thus enter through the cell membrane and carry the information of that salt precisely where it is needed for that person, at that given moment.

At the same time, many signs appearing on the face but also on the tongue, hair and nails or other signals this imbalance through colors, wrinkles, luster, skin texture, patina, etc.

So, a disorder in my body could manifest itself due to a lack of a salt, while in another person the diagnosis would be different: for this reason I do not like to talk about "care", but I prefer to do a "visual analysis" to decide what the real needs of a person are.

Then certainly the ferrum phosphoricum is the salt for inflammation, the natrium phosphoricum regulates the basic acid balance of the body, the magnesium phosphoricum is able to sedate certain types of pain. But that's not the only way they should be chosen.

Visual analysis is certainly not wrong ; going for a symptom could instead also lead to an ineffective cure with the result of driving people away from these mineral salts without having received the necessary help.

In my personal experience, I went to a local homeopathic pharmacy: the person in charge had attended courses and seminars on salts, but she herself did not prescribe them directly for a minor ailment, saying to pay a visit to the homeopath first. Is it therefore essential? Who can do the "visual analysis"?

The homeopath, to make a good choice of the remedy, should also have a thorough knowledge of visual analysis, which his training does not always provide, and even pharmacists are sometimes not informed about it or often even do not even believe in efficacy of these tools.

The company that imports these salts in Italy today also offers many training courses for pharmacists and doctors to teach their correct use, courses also attended personally and which I consider very valid, but we are still light years away from Germany, where almost everyone, not only the experts know them.

The visual analysis is done by those who have been lucky enough to meet teachers who have passed on this art to them. Still few use it and rely 100% on this tool. This is why for some years I have dedicated myself to teaching this subject especially to naturopaths, and I must say with great satisfaction.

In Italy they are little known products, while they seem to be used a lot in Germany, where they may even cost less. Why do you think?

I don't think there are significant price differences in Germany, but it is true that they are not yet very well known in Italy, and some pharmacies have never heard of it, although lately something seems to be moving more.

In Italy they are imported and can be found in pharmacies those of the German company DHU, and they are as homeopathic products, therefore also tax deductible in the tax return, not insignificant detail.

There are also Italian companies that produce them, but in this case it is necessary to pay attention to the numbering which in some cases does not correspond to the original one, but follows different criteria. So in order to avoid confusion when buying, I always suggest indicating the name of the salt next to the reference number.

Have you tried them yourself? What is generally the feedback of people who use them or have used them, if you can give us an example?

I certainly used them myself and started giving them to my children since they were little. It is precisely by verifying its effectiveness that I have continued with study, research and experimentation. Today many people (especially if they are careful and scrupulous in making the right integration) bring me so many positive feedbacks. So also many naturopaths who have followed my courses, and with whom I have remained in contact, very often testify to the good results obtained.

Women who, during menstruation, used various pain-relieving drugs, since they take salts they no longer need them and their quality of life has clearly improved during those days; resolved digestive problems, inflammations (fevers, otitis, laryngitis etc.) quickly healed; improved back pain, past insomnia, fear of exams excellently overcome: these, just to name a few, are cases where I have always found clear improvements, but the case studies are much more extensive and complex.

Even very obvious signs on the face, after a medium-long use of the Salts (from 2 to 5 months) disappear or improve, which attests, without a shadow of a doubt, that the wrong metabolization of a certain salt has been correctly rebalanced.
