Lithium

Lithium is nature's "brain protector" and mood modulator - a trace mineral crucial for neurological resilience and mental clarity. While famous for psychiatric use at high doses, its subtle but vital role at trace levels has been stripped from modern diets through water filtration and soil depletion. It acts as a natural "chill pill," supporting neurogenesis via BDNF, protecting against excitotoxicity, and enhancing stress resilience. In recent times it was identified as a potent mitochondrial enhancer at low doses.

Beyond mood regulation through serotonin and dopamine balance, lithium plays a key role in detoxification - particularly in reducing aluminum uptake in the brain and protecting against modern stressors like non-native EMF exposure. Research suggests it may extend lifespan through reduced inflammation and oxidative stress, echoing patterns seen in regions with naturally lithium-rich water sources.
