On the 10th Day of Cell Salts… Nat phos

On the 10th day of cell salts, Dr. Schüssler gave to us… Natrum phosphoricum.

Nat phos is the balancer of acid. “Alkalinity is health, and over-acid conditions allow for disease” (Card 2014).

Nat phos is the cell salt for whenever a condition arises due to too much acid in the body (acidosis), neutralizing the acid. Primarily, Nat phos is for those who suffer from chronic digestive disorders and/or arthritis.

Conditions which may benefit from Nat phos:

• Acidosis

• Sour smelling

  • body odor

  • discharges

    • Burning discharges, including urine

• Gastrointestinal

  • indigestion (Nat phos “can replace any over-the-counter antacid, especially for those who have to chew antacids every day of their lives” (McCabe 2009)).

    • chronic

  • heartburn

  • sour belching

  • morning sickness

  • vomiting of sour fluids

  • upset stomach

  • nausea accompanied by a sick headache

  • constipation, chronic

• Candida/yeast infections

  • accompanied by gastric troubles

  • on the top of the head or forehead

• Mouth/Teeth

• Skin

• Musculo-skeletal

  • arthritis

  • rheumatism

  • gout

  • joint pains

  • body aches

Mentally and emotionally, Nat phos may be indicated through anxiety, fearfulness and sleeplessness.
