You might have heard of lithium‚ but you may not know that everyone needs some in their diet. Though the precise reason isn't known at this time‚ it's believed that lithium is involved in the functions of a number of vitamins and enzymes‚ along with other chemical processes in the body.
Scientists speculate that lithium is similar to potassium and calcium‚ which is partly why it may have a positive impact of mental health. Lithium activates the functions that create serotonin and dopamine. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is responsible for things like your mood and appetite‚ while dopamine regulates your body's movement and emotions.
Lithium is a micronutrient‚ meaning your body doesn't need large amounts of it. However‚ research has shown that getting a small dose of lithium from a supplement like Pure Encapsulations’ Lithium Orotate 5 mg may help you lead a longer life. Research has suggested that low levels of lithium in your body can cause you to have problems with your metabolism and behavior.
