Lithium
Lithium (Li) is a naturally occurring element, primarily known for its use in psychiatric treatment. In trace amounts, lithium may affect mood stability and mental health. Emerging research indicates that small doses of lithium could support cognitive function, mood enhancement, and neuroprotection, emphasising its potential role in neurological health.
Description
Even in small amounts, lithium can have significant benefits for neurological health, potentially improving mood stability and cognitive function. Benefits are:
- May enhance mood stability
- Supports cognitive health and function
- Offers potential neuroprotective effects
- Being researched for anti-aging neurological benefits
Lithium deficiency is not well-defined, but low levels may be linked to:
- Mood fluctuations
- Increased risk of neurological disorders
- Potential cognitive decline
Lithium is present in trace amounts in:
- Drinking water
- Certain grains and vegetables
- Dairy and meat, depending on the lithium content of the soil and water where they are produced
Yes, at high doses, particularly in psychiatric treatment, lithium requires careful monitoring to prevent toxicity, which can affect the kidneys, thyroid, and lead to neurological issues.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in Europe. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

Absolutely perfect, results came after few days and finally after a lots of times visited GP, we finally know why my son has eczema - he is allergy to carrot. Thanks a lot.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
