Boiron vs. Hyland

I've noticed at the store that Boiron does carry a number (if not close to all) of the 12 cell salts that Hyland seems to carry. I'm pretty sure that they carry them at the X dosage level, and if so, is there any big difference in the quality, and significant difference in the cell salt itself (other than the size/shape of the pellets, etc.). Or should I just stick with Hyland brand for the cell salts?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Cell salts are always in tablet form. I have read many
homeopaths say there is no difference as they are the same
potency-but cell salts are always only the same 12 remedies,
either alone or in combination.

I would just stick with Hylands tablets if you are to be
taking cell salts.

Thanks, and would you suggest the 6x or the 3x.... I'm just trying to replenish these minerals over the long haul. 3x has more of the mineral content, but the 6x is more potent... correct? So if that IS correct which would you suggest? Thanks

If you are trying to replenish everything, I would take the Biochemic
which is all the salts. But for that I order the Dr. Reckeweg brand
from DKO naturals- which is in Canada, but they ship very fast - like
a couple days to usa. it is called BC-28/

If you want to use cell salts individually for a problem, google Robin Murphy
pdf lecture on cell salts- it is a good introduction. I use 6x for a problem.

Hylands has is too, but the total salts of Dr. Reckeweg really seems to
be a superior product as I and everyone else I know who has used it,
feels the effects right away, especially the skin feels smoother and
hydrated.

These are NOT a mineral supplement-they take care of lack or
excess in the cell and help the cell work right to use minerals
in food or all nutrients in food- I use the cell salts individually for a problem that
is indicated and stop when better. I use the BC-28 for a week every
5 or 6 months- as a boost.

Thanks, I wonder about the interdependency of all 12 salts. It would seem to me that the BC-28 or the Hyland 12 salt product would most likely be part of any attempt to address a specific problem. Or at the very least, as I'm beginning to use these salts, I might as well, begin a baseline 'total/all 12 salt' regimen.

I ordered the BC-28. Looking forward to receiving it. thanks for your help!!

Welcome- you could take the BC-28 for a week and then
see where you are at -the issue with all of the salts is that
some things are taken care of and then continuing will be
overdosing those things and put you out of balance.

Also salts if needed can be taken for 3 weeks and then a week off.
Monitor your progress every few days and reduce the amount
if needed.

You can also google Miranda Castro, a well known homeopath
and author-she has a good article on cell salts.

Best wishes,

Simone717

Hi,
I'm sorry my ignorance in homeopathy . Are cell salts same as pellets ?

thanks

No- they are tablets like a tiny aspirin tab.
There are 12 salts individually or in combination.
They go to 12x only.

This is a system to balance out cell metabolism by
Dr. Schuessler and they are called Dr. Schuessler tissue salts,
tissue salts and Biochemic salts.

Simone717, so what would the difference be between say a 6x cell salt and a 30c pellet of the same name (by Boiron for example)...Take Kali Phosphoricum or Natrum Muriaticum. ';Evocationer' already answered this for me, and that the higher potencies will not do what the cell salt prescriber is intending'..but I'm trying to get a better understanding as to why... wouldn't that mean in the case of the 30c/higher potency that it will stay in the body longer and will serve similar intention as the 6x cell salt? Or to put it another way, if I took the 30c dosage less frequently, less pellets, dilute in water... would it then be of 'lower' potency and thus more similar to a 6x... or is it just flat out entirely different medicine/purpose?

It depends what you are taking them for.

The salts are to stabilize cell metabolism- balance out deficiency
or excess.

They are a low potency and low potencies work on a physical
body level.

You can look on this forum site at the top the alphabet and click
on it and read the materia medica for example Nat Mur. See all
the things mental and and physical and what makes things better
and worse and so on. The homeopathic 30c Nat Mur is given
on the basis of a totality of matching symptoms mental, physical
and emotional, better and worse modalities, etc so that it
matches all these things in a persons case. When you have a remedy
that matches all these things it is similar. Like cures like. The body
will not tolerate 2 similar diseases at the same time So if nat mur is
the closest similar it will be matching the disease picture and your
body will then boost your life force energy to clear out everything
that is unwell in you. Your own life force does the work. The remedy
stimulates your life force when it is right. The ( Herings law of cure) look that up-
will go on.

The cell salts are a different system meant to balance the cell
metabolism.

You can compare the materia medica of nat mur to things
the cell salts are given for in Robin Murphy pdf.

btw- you cannot change a remedy potency to a lower potency.
Remedies are made into higher potencies by water in the first place.

Homeopathic remedies after potency 12x have nothing of
the substance in them- they are a molecular imprint in
the water.

You might want to read a basic homeopathy book- a free one
is on the site to the right- under free stuff- on the site of
Mary Aspinwall.
