Schuessler Combination C Tissue Salts 125 Tablets

A rich dinner, a rushed lunch at the desk or one coffee too many can all leave the stomach feeling less than settled. Schuessler Combination C is a four-salt blend traditionally associated with the body's acid balance, and it's one of the most frequently chosen digestive combinations in the Martin & Pleasance range.

Many people like to keep a bottle in the kitchen drawer or at work, so it's on hand whenever their digestion needs a little gentle, traditional support.

A Closer Look at Combination C

Every tablet brings together Mag Phos (magnesium phosphate), Nat Phos (sodium phosphate), Nat Sulph (sodium sulphate) and Silica (silicea), each at 6X. Nat Phos is the tissue salt most closely linked with acid-alkaline balance in Dr Schuessler's system, while Nat Sulph is associated with the digestive organs and Mag Phos with smooth muscle comfort. Silica rounds the blend off as the conditioning salt.

Combination C shares several salts with Combination E and Combination S, but its particular focus on acidity makes it the one to reach for when the upper stomach is the main concern.

The Thinking Behind Tissue Salts

Dr Schuessler's idea was refreshingly simple. He proposed that the body relies on twelve key mineral salts, and that a shortfall or imbalance in any of them might show up in everyday ways. To help, he prepared each mineral at a low, finely divided potency so it could be absorbed easily and taken by young and old alike. First published in 1873, his system spread from Germany across Europe, Britain and Australia, and his twelve salts - along with the combinations later built from them - are still widely used more than 150 years on.

Why Martin & Pleasance?

Few names are as closely tied to tissue salts as Martin & Pleasance. The Australian company has specialised in Schuessler salts for generations, and it still follows the traditional method of triturating each mineral with lactose to a 6X potency. The result is a small, gentle tablet with a mild, slightly sweet taste that most people find easy to take, children included. The range is clearly organised too, with single salts numbered 1 to 12 and combinations identified by letter or number, so it's simple to build a routine around the salts you use most.

How People Use It

Some customers keep Combination C for the times they feel they need it most, taking doses more frequently for a short spell, while others prefer a steady four-times-daily routine over several weeks. Either way, it's best taken half an hour before food, away from strong flavours like mint and coffee. Many people also find it helpful to pair it with other Schuessler salts, as recommended by their practitioner.
