Sodium phosphate and sodium sulphate which help to neutralise blood acidity and are useful for rheumatic conditions including arthritis. Homeopathic sodium chloride alleviateds housedust allergies, watery eyes, wheezing, allergic rhinitis and itchy-sore throat. Common Table Salt I have never had any training in chemistry but am aware that table salt is sodium chloride. Quite often the comment is made that we have enough sodium in our diets and it is obvious that this reference is to common table salt. I have never found table salt to alleviate any symptoms where sodium is required.
Body builders say to avoid it like the plague, along with sugar.
In supplemental form as described in the Buying Cell Salts section i.e., homeopathic sodium chloride known as nat. I judge the usefulness of a cell salt in how well it alleviates symptoms. Of all the symptoms listed in The Biochemic Handbook where the remedy calls for sodium phosphate, sulphate or chloride, table salt doesn't seem to have any effect when taken instead of the recommended cell salt. If sodium chloride worked as a cell salt one would at least think it would alleviate nat. Maybe I didn't take enough table salt to get a positive result.
