Do we need Schüssler salts because there are so few essential minerals contained in our food?
The short answer is “yes”. In the processed and “fast” foods widely consumed today, not only minerals are lacking but also vitamins, essential fatty acids, amino acids and trace elements. Fortunately, these are widely available as supplements. Lifestyle and environmental hazards also have an effect on the requirement for essential minerals. By taking the tissue salts we even improve the capacity of the organism to absorb the essential substances from food.
