Dosing instructions:

• For everyday building and chronic communications: Take 1-2 tablets, 1-3xs/day. Dissolve under the tongue or in water.
• Acute communications: 1-2 tablets, every 1-2 hours.

NOTE:

Cell salts work best when dissolved under your tongue or in your mouth. If that’s not an option, you can dissolve them in water or herbal tea—just sip slowly, don’t chug. They’re designed to be absorbed through the mouth’s lining.

Unlike homeopathic remedies, cell salts don’t need a long gap from food or supplements—1 to 3 minutes is enough for them to be fully absorbed. Try not to touch the tablets with your hands. Instead, pour the needed amount into the bottle’s lid, then place them under your tongue, in your mouth, or into your drink.

My favorite cell salts are from Hylands but you can use your favorite brand!
