Lithium

Lithium carbonate dangers

Lithium carbonate is a prescription drug used to help treat mania in bipolar disorder. It is so biounavailable dosages of 2000mg are used to get even a partial benefit for mania. At 2000mg people often can get damage to their kidneys over time as well as a large number of cognitive & physical adverse effects.

Lithium orotate & chloride

Lithium orotate & lithium chloride are bioavailable at 1/50th to 1/100th the effective dosage of prescription dosage of lithium carbonate. They appear effective for mania at 20-40mg during an active manic episode.

People who have moved to lithium orotate or chloride have had their damaged kidneys heal while off lithium carbonate & on the much lower & apparently safer dosages of lithium ororate/chloride.

Dr. Michael Nehls who has written a book on lithium usage, says 20mg lithium orotate (less than 1mg elemental lithium) is safe & likely necessary for everyones emotional & mental functioning.

Lithium research

Lithium has a century of positive study & usage to increase wisdom. It increases mood, neural growth & cognitive performance, & reduces aggression/anger & dementia. Lithium orotate & chloride over the counter- OTC appear 100 times more bioavailable than prescription lithium carbonate and are effective against aggression.

Lithium has been found to increase neural growth & cognition greater than any other substance. Dr. Dale Bresden & thousands of doctor’s following his protocol that includes OTC lithium have seen people’s brains shrunk from Alzheimer’s damage grow back to normal & people get their memories back.

Everyone used lithium?

Near universal low dose lithium supplementation in commercial beverages up to 1949 was widely accepted for it’s mental health benefits. In 1929- 7 (for atomic weight of lithium) UP (for mood) lithiated lemon-lime was introduced & became popular (#3) for it’s lithium content improving mood.

The resilience people exhibited over the great depression & WWII that led to them being called our greatest generation may have been helped by widespread lithium ingestion.

Five countries have found in studies that within each country the counties with the naturally highest levels of lithium in the water had 40% less violent crimes including suicides & homicides- US, Austria, Germany, Japan, Australia.
