Schuessler salts can be helpful as a complementary treatment for osteoporosis. Schuessler salts are also useful as a preventative measure for those at risk of developing osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a degenerative disease characterized by a significant decrease in bone density. Dr. Schuessler hypothesized that osteoporosis occurs due to a depletion of certain salts in the body. Since osteoporosis is caused by calcium loss in the bones, the recommendations for Schuessler salts for osteoporosis treatment are somewhat obvious:
- Schuessler Salts No. 1 Calcium Fluoride – for any skeletal disorders, provides hardness and elasticity.
- Schussler salt No. 2 Calcium phosphate is the main salt of the skeletal system, stimulates the formation of bone tissue.
- Schussler salt No. 17 Manganese sulfate – stimulates bone tissue growth.
- Schussler salt No. 22 Calcium carbonate – promotes general metabolism and, in particular, bone tissue.
Take the chosen salt 2 or 3 times a day, depending on symptoms. The dosage is 1-3 tablets. It is recommended to take it 30 minutes before or after meals.
To prevent osteoporosis, take a course of at least 4 weeks:
- Schuessler’s Salt No. 1 Calcium Fluoride – 5 tablets in the morning
- Schuessler salt No. 2 calcium phosphate – 5 tablets per lunch
- Schussler salt No. 11 Silicon – 5 tablets in the evening.
