Known as the first aid salt of the twelve, Schuessler No 04 Ferr Phos is traditionally the salt people reach for at the very first sign of feeling unwell, overheated or a little bruised and battered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts small 6X tablets are gentle enough for the whole family, and many people tuck a bottle into their travel kit or first aid box so it's always within reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Is Ferr Phos?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFerr Phos, also written as Ferrum Phos, is the shorthand name for iron phosphate. Iron is a key part of haemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen around the body, and in Dr Schuessler's system Ferr Phos is the salt associated with oxygen transport and with the first stage of inflammation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of this broad role, Ferr Phos is one of the most widely used salts in the whole range. It also appears in a long list of combinations, including Combination 5, Combination 12, and Combinations A, B, I, J, L, Q, R and T.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eA Little Tissue Salt History\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr Wilhelm Heinrich Schuessler (1821-1898) was a German physician based in Oldenburg who became fascinated by the mineral content of the human body. After studying the ash left behind from human tissue, he identified twelve inorganic salts he believed were vital to healthy cells, and in 1873 he published his findings. He called his approach biochemic, and he prepared each salt in a tiny, finely triturated form so it could be taken comfortably by people of every age. His twelve salts have travelled the world ever since, and they remain a familiar part of natural health routines today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMade by Martin \u0026amp; Pleasance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMartin \u0026amp; Pleasance has been producing natural remedies for well over a century, and its Schuessler tissue salts are among the most recognised in the category. Every tablet is made at a 6X potency - a one in a million dilution of the mineral - using lactose as the traditional carrier. The tablets are compact and pleasantly mild, so they're easy to chew, dissolve on the tongue or stir into water. With twelve single salts and a long list of lettered and numbered combinations, the range makes it straightforward to find a salt that suits your routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMaking It Part of Your Day\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTissue salts work best as a gentle habit rather than an occasional extra. Try linking No 04 Ferr Phos to things you already do, such as before breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a final dose as you head to bed.
