Product Benefits
- Improve mental health - Research studies have addressed lithium as a mood stabilizer. Lithium (orotate) 5mg supplement by pure encapsulations brand supports mental wellness, healthy mood, emotional wellness, emotional stability, memory and behavioral health.
- Promote healthy cognition - It helps maintain cognition. Studies have shown that lithium is neuroprotective, affects neuronal homeostasis, and improves cognitive performance when given in low doses.
- Promotes neurotransmitter activity - Lithium acts through dopamine and serotonin. Lithium modulates neurotransmitter systems that are associated with brain health and behavior. It works by decreasing excitatory neurotransmission (dopamine and glutamate) and increasing inhibitory transmission (gamma-aminobutyric acid or GABA and serotonin).
- Unique combination of lithium and NAC (N-acetyl-l-cysteine) - This Pure Encapsulations supplement has lithium and N-acetyl-l-cysteine. NAC has been widely used in managing psychiatric disorders and improving depressive symptoms. Scientific evidence highlights that, when NAC is used in combination with lithium, it has a positive impact due to its safety and effectiveness, improves bipolar symptoms and reduces the side effects associated with the use of mood stabilizers in psychotic treatments. Oxidative stress and inflammation are the main culprits in mood disorders because our brain is highly vulnerable to oxidative stress. In Bipolar disorder, glutathione levels are reduced, and oxidative stress is increased. NAC also increases glutathione levels in the brain.

My son is bipolar and has taken prescription lithium. He hated it because he couldn’t function at work. Ann Louise Gittleman recommended this for Alzheimer’s protection along with other things. I decided to give it to my son, who was falling into a deep depression. What an amazing turnaround. I now make sure I never run out of it. I also take it, as does my husband.
Helps with autoimmune issues.
