Lithium Orotate: May provide natural help with mood swings, depression and fibromyalgia

• A naturally occurring mineral salt
• Anti-ageing benefits for the brain
• May help with bipolar disorder treatment

What is Lithium?

Many people do not realise that lithium itself is not a drug, but is instead a naturally occurring mineral salt like potassium, and is something which everyone needs for proper mental and physical health.
The kinds of lithium which most people have heard about are the pharmaceutical drug forms of lithium, like lithium carbonate and lithium citrate. These drugs are typically prescribed for treatment of mood disorders like bipolar disorder.

What is Lithium Orotate?

Lithium orotate is something very different. It is a special mineral form of lithium which will cross the blood brain barrier. This means that the huge amounts required of the pharmaceutical drug forms of lithium citrate and lithium carbonate in order to effectively treat a condition, are not necessary when using lithium orotate. Instead, only a tiny amount of lithium orotate is needed, as 97% of it gets where it actually needs to go.

Why is it so different from Lithium Carbonate and Lithium Citrate?

One of the main reasons people use lithium orotate instead of the pharmaceutical forms of lithium carbonate or lithium citrate is because of their potential for lithium toxicity and because of their numerous side effects. The large quantities of those drugs which must be used in order to be effective are at near toxic levels with a narrow window of safety. The hope is that they will do more good than harm.

Lithium orotate, on the other hand, is completely non-toxic, very safe in all respects, has no side effects, and is effective for an estimated 70% to 80% of individuals who try it. Because of the small amounts of lithium in lithium orotate, which still effectively treats many different conditions, it is available as an over-the-counter mineral supplement.

In addition, lithium orotate is a mineral which can be helpful for anyone to take. It protects the brain in a number of important ways. It has also been recently discovered that the mineral lithium can actually restore and increase the gray matter in the brain (source of intelligence) which nothing else known to date can do. In addition, taking small amounts of lithium orotate provides anti-aging benefits to the brain, as well as protecting the brain from numerous toxins, and more.
How is Lithium Orotate Used?

To receive the benefits of anti-ageing for the brain, neuroprotection from toxins etc., 1 tablet daily is suggested. Also, a daily supplement of 300-400mcg folic acid is recommended as it enhances the brain's ability to utilise the protective properties of lithium orotate.
