Nutritional Lithium

Lithium, one of the oldest and most studied mood stabilizers, is a naturally occurring mineral found in trace amounts in food and water. Beyond its well-established role in bipolar disorder, research indicates it is an essential micronutrient involved in key biological processes and may have therapeutic potential at low doses for mood, behavioral, and cognitive disorders. Understanding lithium’s pharmacology, safety profile, and emerging applications is essential for pharmacists guiding patient care.
