Should tissue salts have a negative ionic charge?

Positive and negative ionic charge: atomic properties of the elements in the periodic tableI’m not sure where the idea arose of tissue salts having a negative ionic charge as being the most potent form, but we receive many queries along these lines.

Flea-free and part of the family

I receive many queries about pets and this is one that arrived this week. I thought I’d share the answer since I remember in my days before tissue salts really feeling helpless about our Maltese poodle who was doing just this, and then lost hair and got eczema that we were treating with cortisone on prescription from the vet.
