Book excerpt: Edema means swelling caused by fluid in your body's tissues. It usually occurs in the feet, ankles and legs, but it can involve your whole body. Edema can also be a sign of serious organ damage. The swelling is just a sign. It is always a symptom for another disease. Causes of edema are cardiac insufficiency, kidney and liver disease, problems with lymph nodes, hormonal imbalance, some medications, standing a lot, metabolic disorders, an acidification of the body, eating too much salt, a weakness of the vascular connective tissue and obesity. In this homeopathic and naturopathic adviser, I will give you recommendations how to treat and prevent edema with Homeopathy, Schuessler salts (also named cell salts, tissue salts) and herbal tinctures. I will present you the most proven homeopathic remedies and Schuessler salts, including the appropriate potency and dosage. I wish you much success, joy of life and especially your health.
