The brain is the most complex organ in our body. Indeed, it is perhaps the most complex structure we have ever encountered in nature. Both structurally and functionally, there are many peculiarities that differentiate the brain from all other organs. The brain is our connection to the world around us and by governing nervous system and higher function, any disturbance induces severe neurological and psychiatric disorders that can have a devastating effect on quality of life. Our understanding of the physiology and biochemistry of the brain has improved dramatically in the last two decades. In particular, the critical role of cations, including magnesium, has become evident, even if incompletely understood at a mechanistic level. The exact role and regulation of magnesium, in particular, remains elusive, largely because intracellular levels are so difficult to routinely quantify. Nonetheless, the importance of magnesium to normal central nervous system activity is self-evident given the complicated homeostatic mechanisms that maintain the concentration of this cation within strict limits essential for normal physiology and metabolism. There is also considerable accumulating evidence to suggest alterations to some brain functions in both normal and pathological conditions may be linked to alterations in local magnesium concentration. This book, containing chapters written by some of the foremost experts in the field of magnesium research, brings together the latest in experimental and clinical magnesium research as it relates to the central nervous system. It offers a complete and updated view of magnesiums involvement in central nervous system function and in so doing, brings together two main pillars of contemporary neuroscience research, namely providing an explanation for the molecular mechanisms involved in brain function, and emphasizing the connections between the molecular changes and behavior. It is the untiring efforts of those magnesium researchers who have dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries of magnesiums role in biological systems that has inspired the collation of this volume of work.

​*** OVER 35,000 COPIES SOLD *** In the 1870s, Dr. Wilhelm Schuessler revolutionized German homeopathic medicine. A homeopathic physician, Dr. Schuessler believed that the approximately 2,000 remedies of his day could be simplified. After the doctor determined that effective ingredients in the remedies were their mineral constituents, he isolated these components and developed twelve individual remedies—the Schuessler cell salts—that are essential to maintaining health. Homeopathic Cell Salt Remedies is a simple yet comprehensive guide to the history, theory, and use of cell salts. Part One provides a history of Dr. Schuessler’s discovery, a brief overview of each cell salt, and comprehensive instructions for using the remedies. Part Two features a Simplified Remedy Guide offering an A-to-Z listing of common disorders and their remedies. This is followed by a detailed discussion of each of the cell salts. Rounding out the book are a chapter on using cell salts for youth and beauty, a glossary of terms, and a resource list of firms that sell the remedies. At a time when millions are rediscovering the many benefits of homeopathic medicine, Homeopathic Cell Salt Remedies provides a valuable introduction to the safe and effective use of cell salts.
