Common Cell Salt Cycling, Protocols, and Dosing Procedures
Below are some common dosing protocols for cell salts. If you are new to cell salts (aka tissue salts, Schuessler biochemic theory), we recommend starting with one cell salt at a time. It will be easier for you to assess its results. Start with one cell salt that targets your main complaint. Take it for 1-2 weeks and assess how it’s going before incorporating an additional cell salt into your protocol.
This is an essential pillar of classical homeopathic philosophy; unique from most other natural health modalities: More is not better. One well-selected remedy is better than many half selected ones. Jackson’s Cell Salts are in a 6X potency which is a very gentle strength to use at home.
One Cell Salt Starting Protocol:
Day 1-5: Take 1-3 times per day.
Day 6-7: Rest days (no cell salts).
Example Take 1 cell salt three times per day on Monday to Friday, take rest days on the weekend. Repeat.
More than One Cell Salt Protocols
In some cases, such as under the supervision of a health practitioner, starting with more than one cell salt can be beneficial. A well-selected combination can work wonders! We are passionate about helping you incorporate cell salts and common homeopathic remedies into your everyday health so you can see for yourself just how well it can work.
After you have determined cell salts are a good fit for you and should be taken in combination, here are three different dosing protocols to consider when taking them:
Cell Salt Protocol A: Alternate Weeks
Week 1
Day 1-5: Cell Salt 1 1-3 times per day
Day 6-7: Rest day (no cell salts)
Week 2
Day 8-13: Cell Salt 2 1-3 times per day
Day 14-15: Rest day
Repeat above
Cell Salt Protocol B: Alternate Days
Day 1
Cell Salt 1 1-3 times per day
Day 2
Cell Salt 2 1-3 times per day
Repeat, take a couple days off here and there.
Cell Salt Protocol C: Taken Together
Take the same way as the protocol for one salt, take ½ dose of each salt for each serving.
Day 1-5: Take 1-3 times per day.
Day 6-7: Rest days (no cell salts).
Example Take 1 cell salt three times per day on Monday to Friday, take rest days on the weekend. Repeat.
Notes on When to Stop Taking Cell Salts...
Taking homeopathic remedies (like cell salts) differs from most health products in that you want to reduce the frequency of dosage when improvements are noticed and eventually stopping all together once symptoms have significantly improved or resolved.
For example, you start taking a cell salt and after a week your symptoms have improved by 30%. For the following week, you would take it only 2 times per day. When symptoms improve to 60-70%, you would reduce frequency again to once per day.
