Facial Diagnostics and Cell Salts

Today, there is much greater awareness of facial diagnostics than there was some 50 or even 100 years ago. This might sound encouraging at first glance but quite a different picture emerges when we take a second – and closer – look. Over the years, serious mistakes have crept in, rendering no service to either biochemistry or facial diagnostics. The health benefits offered by this form of therapy have no doubt been recognized by a large number of people but they have not all completely understood their full scope. I would like to warn against the idea of business exploitation by marketing strategists and theoreticians who seem to lack basic therapeutic experience in dealing with the sick and needy.

Schuessler cell salts are a well known healing method all around the world.  Developed after Hahnemann homeopathy, because Schuessler found he needed more therapies.  Was influenced by other researchers. Started with 12 minerals in 1873.   3 purposes of cell salts: 1) every mineral must be a basic building block for formation of new cells, 2) all cell salts are operational, used like fuel, 3) used in elimination and cleansing, including detoxification aspect.

Translations of his work are not correct.

How to know which to prescribe?  Symptoms and facial diagnostics.  He described the symptoms of a shortage of a particular mineral.

Combinations of cell salts.  All minerals are in combination.  3 cell salts are calcium:  calc fluor, calc phospho, calc. sulf.  Calc sulf is a waste product of metabolism, found only in bile.  Doesn’t fulfill the 3 purposes.

 Kali sulfur and Nat sulfur.

Cell salts are organically bonded to milk sugar and are not free.  In water, the minerals are free and the organism can use them; they’re not organically bonded.  Minerals have to come into the cells.  An adult human has 100 trillion body cells.  To get an idea of that magnitude, 100 trillion seconds is more than 3.17 million years.  Our brain can’t understand that magnitude.  Each cell is formed by a lot of building blocks.  Inorganic cells salts are building blocks.  A building block of the cell must be smaller than the cell.  That’s why Schuessler used the homeopathic dilution method, so cell salts can pass through the membrane into the cell.  Minerals are insoluble solids that get ground down.  They get smaller with every dilution.  Take in 1:10 dilutions.  Dilution is indicated by letter X in English or D in German.  Highest potency Schuessler took is 12X.  #3  Ferrum Phosphate, #4  Calcium Fluoride, and #12 Silica are 12x.  Others are in 6X.  He never used 30X for his minerals – that is a homeopathic, not a biochemical treatment.  If higher than 23x, you can’t find any material in the dilution.  Has to come into the cell, is a building block.

Minerals in food are important to help the function of metabolism to work properly, but they don’t help us fill up a deficiency in minerals.  To fill up a deficiency, we need to use unbonded minerals, such as we find in spring water but not tap water.  Organic means it is built by an organism.  Everything else is inorganic.  Minerals are always inorganic, but can be organically bonded.

Everyone today has a lack of minerals because of pollution, radioactivity, poor soils, chemicals, GMOs.  Minerals help us to excrete these poisons.  Before modern living we used to have all the minerals.  People didn’t have deficiencies because the environment was okay.

Facial diagnosis is great for diagnosing mineral deficiencies in cell salts.  24 signs on the skin of mineral deficiency.  Problematic to diagnose ourselves, but we can diagnose other people.  Mr. Depke has training courses in Germany with the possibility to translate into Swedish and English.  Must see a person in the flesh, can’t work with photos or Skype.  Our world is 3-dimensional and must see 3 dimensions and proper lighting to properly diagnose.  Look at colors, shine, gloss, structural signs like wrinkles.  Deficiency can lead to illness if it’s existed a long time; signs will disappear after deficiency is corrected.

Nowadays 1 or 2 minerals are not enough.  4-5, even 6 different minerals may be needed.  Take cell salts throughout day.  Number of pills varies with each patient, can be 30-40 pills a day until problem is gone.  Chronic disease takes longer.

Serum Phos, 5-10 tablets, good to take at a sign of a cold.  Take 1 every 10 minute if acute.  If severe, take every minute.

Is not harmful to take cell salts, even if the body doesn’t need the cell salt.  The body can manage it.

Hyland’s Bioplasma – combo of 12 cell salts.  Mr. Depke has not tried it.  He uses only individual cell salts from Germany and mixes them together.  Might be better to take 1 or 2 individual cell salts in higher potencies.

Have cell salts ever cleared cataracts?  Yes.

The numbering system for German cell salts and Hyland’s cell salts are different.  Numbers are different in Germany from the US and other countries; they are counted in alphabetic order.  In Germany, they only use Latin names.

In the audio and in these notes, there may be a mix of German cell salt numbers and Hyland’s cell salt number.  Go by the name of the cell salt. 

My 6 month old is sensitive to dairy, gets ear infections and clear runny nose.  Mr. Depke would want to see the baby, but the issue is probably an inflammation,  Ferrum Phos #4, Kali Muir #5, Kali Sulf. #7, 2 tablets a day of each up to age 2.  Adults – take 10/day.

Everyone is deficient in  #2 Calc Phos , #5 Kali Muir, #7 Kali Sulf, #8 Mag Phos.  Dosage for an adult is 10 tablets/day of each.  Can do 3, 3, and 4 of each during the day.

For insomnia problems, if problems getting to sleep, #2, Calc Phos.  If waking up 2-3 am, or at the full moon, #2 also.  #8 Mag Phos can also help.  10/day of each, or take 5 before bed.  Other minerals can also help, which is why facial diagnosis is important.

Adrenal and all gland regeneration needs #5 Cali Muir, #8 Mag Phos, #2 Calc Phos.

Remineralizing teeth – #2 Calc Phos, #1 Calc Fluoride.  Sometimes #9 Natrum Muir, #8 Mag Phos.

For rebuild the nervous system, need all the cell salts.  Facial diagnosis needed.  #2 Calc. Phos. important to calm down, #8 Mag Phos, #12 Silica, #6 Kali Phos.  In some cases #9 Natrum Muir.

A lot of really sick patients have gotten better using cell salts and facial diagnostics.  Mr. Depke has been in practice for 44 years using facial diagnosis, 27 years of using cell salts.

No one in the US now practices Mr. Depke’s facial diagnosis.

How about Mr. Depke coming to Texas and teaching us facial diagnostics and diagnosing us?

#9 Natrum Muir most important for joint synovia.  Joint pain that comes from inflammation needs #4 Ferrum Phos, #5 Kali Muir, #7 Kali Sulf.  Severe conditions may require other intervention.

Facial charts showing indications for organs in the body can be useful, but it’s not important to see the diseased areas, but rather to see the deficiency.  Deficiency can lead to organ symptoms if it exists for a long time.  Cell salts recommended based on facial diagnosis is preventative because it eliminates deficiency at an early stage.

Listener says Schuesslercellsalts.com shows a chart.

If one has a methylation problem with heavy metal intoxication, take #9 Natrum Muir and #5 Kali Muir, once a day.

Take #2, #5, #7, #8 split up over the day.
