As You
Said...
Beyond Self Care, but...
Dear 1800,
Kali phos is a wonderful medicine for epilepsy.* I
used it for my son and he recovered within 3 days. He
used to suffer from seizures for a very long time and
well known neurologists could not cure him with
established allopathic medicine. - YJ *As epilepsy is
not considered a ‘self limited’ condition, we do not
advocate self-treatment without guidance of a licensed
practitioner.
Dear 1800,
A dear friend and mentor
recommended the
cell salts from your catalog, which have worked
wonders in my life. People tell me that I'm glowing and
that I look great. I feel healthier, younger and more
energetic as a result of taking the cell salts for over
a year.

Experts Say . . .
On
Kali phos
Dr. Chapman suggests
Kali phos can be helpful for school children
displaying typical
Kali phos symptoms such as “fretfulness, ill-humor,
bashfulness, timidity, laziness and similar indications;
indeed, any display of what is sometimes described as
‘tantrums’ may be regarded as a
Kali Phos symptom”
–Dr. Chapman, The Biochemic
Handbook
On
Kali phos
“Kali
phos corresponds to those cases in which there is
increased sensitiveness to all impressions from a
weakness of the vital resistance or control. In weakened
states from shock, mental or physical from over-strain
or over-drain of the system.”
Further on in the listing he includes:
“Shy nervous dread, starts easily. Anxiety with nervous
dread, lethargy.
Extreme lassitude and depression. Slightest labor seems
a heavy task.
Indisposition to meet people. Brain-fag.”

Kali phosphoricum
(Potassium phosphate)
This universal ‘debuzzer’
for babies, kids and adults, derives from a mineral
compound critical to nerve and brain cells (though also
in muscles, blood and intercellular fluids). Its many
applications for both pain and emotional symptoms has
made it one of our best selling single remedies. Buzzing
ears, study headaches, agitated nerves and nerve weary
fatigue can regroup and relax once this cell salt brings
nerve cells back into balance. Dr. George Carey summed
up the role of potassium phosphate: “this salt unites
with protein and by the addition of oxygen creates nerve
fluid, or the gray matter of the brain.” (Scheussler’s
deficiency symptoms noted below #4.)
When loss of nerve power or
agitation result from injury, illness, stress, mental
strain or sadness, potassium phosphate levels are
challenged, thus
Kali phos helps nerves recover, relax and regain
strength.
Kali phos’ pain relief begins with nervous headaches
caused by study, stress, grief or nerve injury.
Backache, sciatic pain and other neuralgic pains respond
well to
Kali phos, especially if they result in weakness and
cold heavy-feeling limbs. Stress or pain related nausea
with empty feeling and bitter belching settle down
quickly with
Kali phos. It can even quiet buzzing or ringing in
the ears.
On the emotional plane,
Kali phos has restorative, calming powers over
temper tantrums, pangs of grief, anxiety or dread,
hypersensitive nerves, and night terrors. Whenever work,
worry, study, stress or illness leave you weary but
restless, sad, nervous, gloomy, dreading what might be
next, and unable to get up and do something about it
Kali phos is a worry-free option worth trying.
It may be the person’s
nature or it may be a temporary state, but the patient
who benefits most from
Kali phos may be shy, nervous, hypersensitive, weak,
easily startled, easily wearied and sometimes quite
pessimistic. Other symptoms include nightmares,
sleeplessness and cravings for sweets and ice water.
We too often overlook the
chemical/nutritional factors affecting our mental
emotional states and the options available for getting
us back in balance. Next time you are down, let
Kali phos show you just how chemical sadness and
anxiety can be.
