Tissue salts vs medicated potency was cell salts

HI,

very OK explanation, but triggered me to write a short word
explaining the difference between Scheussler rx's and the usual
medicating potencies. Younger homeopaths may appreciate it.
Most homeopathic medicines are prepared in liquid form - that is as a
mother tincture - And those substances that cant be dissolved in
liquid are triturated up to a point (3x or 6x) then converted to liquid form.
Scheussler's remedies are triturated. The intention being that a
certain amount of the substance will still exist on a molecular nano
level, to be more easily nutritionally assimilated on a cellular
level. That 3grain or 5grain tablet is the triturated lactose
compressed into tablets. And the usual dose is 2-4 tablets.
A 6c or 6x homeopathic pill is prepared differently. Globules are
doused with medicating potency. Mathmatically, 100 globules may
"share out" a few drops of medicating potency, each globule only
getting a fraction of a drop.
So mathmatically the dose between tissue salts and a homeopathic
remedy are somewhat different. To get the same quantity of tissue
salts, one would have to take (for example) 1/4 or 1/8 teaspoon of
the medicating potency, not a fraction of a drop on a globule.
Which is not to say that a triturated tissue salt can't be prescribed
following classical principles, if that's your intention. It is
prepared homeopathically, nonetheless. Rx's such as uran nit,
aur-m-n, sarcodes, etc are triturated in 3x and quite useful for
their respective purposes.
But you're mistaken if you're using a homeopathic globule 6x or 6c as
if its tissue salt and prescribing on Scheussler's principles. It may
not work that way.
