The story

Natura was founded in 1966 by Dr Michael Levien, a South African practitioner who studied homoeopathy, osteopathy, and naturopathy before opening his practice in 1960 and then establishing Natura Laboratory to manufacture his own remedies. For nearly six decades, the company has been a fixture in South African medicine cabinets: the green-and-white tissue salt tubes, the homeopathic combinations for everyday complaints, and the gentle children's range have become household staples.

The tissue salts range (the twelve Dr Schussler biochemic salts) is what Natura is best known for. These are low-potency homeopathic preparations of essential cell minerals, used traditionally for gentle correction of common imbalances: Mag Phos for muscle cramps, Kali Phos for nervous exhaustion, Nat Sulph for digestive sluggishness. Natura also produces the Combin combination remedies that pair multiple tissue salts for specific complaints (allergies, fatigue, colds), and the Brain Child paediatric range for children. The brand sits comfortably between the homeopathic tradition and a contemporary, well-manufactured product range, which is why it has stayed in pharmacies and practitioner clinics for as long as it has.
Healing should be gentle, and it should work with the body rather than against it. That is the whole foundation of homeopathy, and the reason Natura has stayed in family medicine cabinets for sixty years.
Dr Michael Levien, Founder, Natura Laboratory (1966)

Touring the range

Three doorways into the brand: entry, classic, specialty.

START HERE

The household three

If you are new to tissue salts, start with the three most-reached-for: Ferrum Phos (early colds and inflammation), Mag Phos (cramps and spasms), and Kali Phos (nervous exhaustion and sleep). Between them they cover the majority of everyday complaints.

About this brand

Common questions customers ask about the brand and its products.

What are tissue salts and how do they work?
Tissue salts are the twelve biochemic minerals identified by Dr Wilhelm Schussler in the 1870s. They are prepared homeopathically (typically at D6 potency), which makes them very gentle and safe across the family. They are not the same as mineral supplements; the homeopathic preparation works on the body's regulation of those minerals rather than supplying a nutritional dose.
Are tissue salts safe in pregnancy and for children?
Yes. D6 tissue salts are one of the safest categories of natural medicine. They are routinely used during pregnancy, breastfeeding, in infants (crushed or dissolved), and in elderly patients with multiple medications. No known interactions with prescription drugs and no side-effect profile.
How do I take Natura tissue salts?
Dissolve under the tongue between meals (15 minutes before or after eating). Standard adult dose is 2 to 4 tablets, three times a day, or more frequently for acute complaints. Children get half the adult dose. The tablets are lactose-based and dissolve quickly.
How long before I notice an effect?
For acute complaints (cramps, early colds, nervous tension), often within 15 to 60 minutes. For chronic patterns (long-term sleep issues, recurring complaints), 2 to 6 weeks of consistent use is more realistic. Tissue salts work on the body's regulatory system rather than overriding a symptom, which means the timing is different to a conventional medicine.
Can I take multiple tissue salts together?
Yes. Tissue salts are routinely combined. The Combin TS range does exactly this in pre-formulated combinations. If you are taking single salts, two or three at the same dose schedule is fine; spread them out by 5 minutes if you prefer to feel each one separately.
What is the difference between tissue salts and homeopathic remedies?
Tissue salts are a subset of homeopathic medicine: just the twelve essential cell minerals at D6 potency. Classical homeopathic remedies cover a much wider range of substances at varying potencies, prescribed based on a fuller symptom picture. Tissue salts are simpler to self-prescribe; classical homeopathy benefits from a practitioner consultation.
Where is Natura based?
Natura is South African, founded in 1966 and still manufacturing locally. The professional division supports practitioners directly, and the consumer range is widely stocked in pharmacies and health stores nationally.
