Dr. William H. Schuessler of Oldenburg, Germany published Shortened Therapeutics in 1873. His practical work concentrated on just 12 simple mineral combinations, or salts, which he believed to be crucial to the health of the body.

The biochemic remedies are not selected according to the similarity principle of homoeopathy. They are chemically pure salts, homogeneous to the cell-minerals in human body, physiologically and chemically in close relation to them.

By the aid of these minerals, disturbed molecular motion in the cells can be rectified, as, taken for a certain period, these salts will compensate the losses incurred during a disease. Thus, the cells will recover, and will be able to overcome the problem completely.

Following are two of the 12 Schuessler Salts which can be helpful in constipation:
(The most commonly-used abbreviation is followed by its traditional and chemical names.)

1. KALI MUR (Kali Muriaticum; Potassium Chloride)

• b. indigestion from rich food

2. KALI SULPH (Kali Sulphuricum; Potassium Sulphate)

• a. yellow mucus, later stages of illness, congestion and cough worse in evening
• b. gas, poor digestion

Use common sense when dealing with your body. Too much of anything can cause damage. This includes food, supplements, medication, herbs etc etc. It is not what you use but how you use it!

Treat your body with respect, you were given a brand new 'Mercedes' at birth, if you service it regular and treat it well you'll have a life long reliable beautiful vehicle.
