Spring break is upon us, and many families are choosing to travel. Whether to go somewhere hot on a vacation or to see family in other parts of the country, many have the itch to travel!
With this change in environment and weather can come a host of ailments as our body adjusts.
Here are the top cell salts for travelling:
-
#9 Nat mur 6X – this cell salt can be considered for all symptoms that come from over-exposure to sun. In the northern hemisphere, we have spent a long winter in the cold and darkness – not even enough light to naturally produce vitamin D through our skin. When we travel somewhere hot and we’re in the sun for too long, it can be quite an adjustment.
-
Common symptoms that can help from exposure to the sun include: skin eruptions from the sun (sun blisters), headaches, and tiredness.
-
-
#10 Nat phos 6X – this cell salt can be considered for all gastric upsets and joint inflammation (e.g. gout) from dietary errors. When we travel to a new place, the food is different. Even stuff we are used to can have a different effect. Natrum phosphoricum is also known as the 'homeopathic antacid' and can be safely tried for all manners of tummy upsets from food errors.
-
#4 Ferr phos 6X and #5 Kali mur 6X – these cell salts can be considered for nipping colds in the bud. Both work together to support the immune system when it’s in that process of catching a cold. When we travel, we are exposed to so many more people at once than normal. It taxes our immune system, and we can feel really worn down or sick when we land at our supposed holiday.
-
12 in 1 – cell salt ‘catch-all’ for travelling. Consider taking 1 dose every 6-8 hours while traveling.
- Serenity NOW – cell salt combination for trepidation or feeling nervous while traveling. Containing #6 Kali phos 6X and gluten-free Avena sativa 3X, these drops are formulated calm and support your nervous system. Whether boarding, at take off, during the flight, or while landing, Serenity NOW can be taken to help calm your system.
Dosage for minor acute ailments:
Symptoms like headaches and stomach aches: Common dosage is one dose (4 pellets for adults) every 30 minutes to 2 hours. Improvement should be noted after 3-6 doses. Reduce frequency of dosage on improvement of symptoms.
Symptoms like onset of colds, sore throats: In these times, take 1 dose 3 to 6 times with 4-6 hours in between each dose.

This is just for minor, acute ailments that don’t require the supervision of a health practitioner, and/or a doctor. Always consult with one for your health concerns and then once you have that advice, consider cell salts to help support and work with whatever is else is recommended. What’s wonderful about cell salts as a natural health adjunct, it that they won’t interfere with conventional medications or supplements. Cell salts are low dose homeopathic remedies. They are also designed to help your body regulate and balance the levels of essential minerals.
