The Role of Lithium Homeostasis in Alzheimer's

25 Oct 2025

Description

Lithium levels in the brain drop in people with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's, fueling memory loss, brain inflammation, and the buildup of toxic proteins Low-dose lithium has been shown to preserve memory, improve attention, and stabilize mood without the kidney and thyroid risks tied to prescription-strength doses A clinical trial found that lithium slowed progression from early memory problems to Alzheimer's, lowering key disease markers and improving daily functioning Whole foods, mineral-rich water, magnesium, and zinc all support healthy lithium balance and give your brain the nutrients it needs to resist decline Removing vegetable oils, lowering excess iron, and boosting antioxidants like glutathione work alongside lithium to protect brain cells and preserve long-term memory
