A word about Bio-Lithium
Many believe Lithium is a drug; in fact, it's an important trace mineral and
one that many Americans lack! Standard psychiatric doses of 90-180 mg of
Elemental Lithium has given Lithium a negative reputation for causing a
"dial-tone" effect. That's too bad; in lesser doses given at HRC (5-15mg of
Elemental Lithium daily) we've seen many positive benefits without side
effects ... particularly for alcoholics:
- Both practicing and abstinent alcoholics report low-dose Lithium improves
mood and decreases the desire for alcohol.
- Alcoholics on Lithium show a reduction in mood disturbances.
- Lithium reduces the number of days incapacitated by drinking severe enough
to need detoxification.
- At HRC many abstinent alcoholics are able to normalize sleep patterns more
quickly by supplementing with low-dose Lithium.
Low Lithium levels have been linked to people with certain conditions
including: Heart Disease, Learning Disabilities, and Violent Criminal
Tendencies.
- Other areas Lithium treatment shows promise for include: Depression,
Irritability, and sometimes Pre-menstrual Moods for women; Irritability, and
Loss of Temper for men; Aggressive Behavior in children; Anorexia Nervosa;
Cluster Headaches; Hyperthyroidism/Graves Disease; Gout; Fibromyalgia;
Herpes Simplex and other Viruses.
Excerpt from Dr. Hans Nieper's Revolution in Technology,
Medicine:
Lithium has proven very useful in the treatment of diseases. Due to its
physical characteristics, it displaces sodium in the cellular system.
Apparently, its desirable therapeutic effects are related to this fact.
As a rule, orthodox medicine prescribes lithium in the form of its usual salts,
such as lithium carbonate. It then becomes necessary to ingest fairly large
quantities to achieve the desired effects. These are: improvement in manic
and depressive states, improvement in the tendency towards alcoholism, a
braking effect on thyroid overproduction and occasionally an improvement in
the production of white blood cells, for instance, in the defense against
cancerous diseases. Unfortunately, the side effects are not insignificant.
These include disturbance of the water balance, fine muscular tremors
(fibrillation) and the requirement for fairly frequent lithium blood level
controls. As a rule, it may attain 0.6 mval. A trick can be used to overcome
these side effects-instead of the usual salts, supply the lithium salt of
orotic acid (lithium orotate) which preferentially moves to those cell
systems we want to affect, for example, the cells of the connective
structure of the brain (the glia cells), the cells of the heart's pacemaker
and the heart's stimulus conduction system, and the bone marrow cells. It is
thus possible to improve the specific effect of lithium nearly 20 fold.
Clinically, 5 mg lithium out of the orotate are approximately as effective
as 100 mg lithium out of the carbonate. Examinations of blood serum are no
longer necessary because there is no longer any important increase in the
serum's lithium content, nor can one be attained. Muscular fibrillation is
also prevented, as are disorderly effects on the thyroid. The formation of
goiter is avoided, as are undesirable distrubances in the water balance.
According to Dr. Kline's studies, in New York, 37% of alcoholics are
favorably influenced by lithium carbonate; the figure for lithium orotate
would presumably be closer to 70%. In addition, neither the alcoholic nor
the emotionally disturbed likes to have to constantly run to the laboratory
for lithium controls, as the therapy with the orthodox lithium carbonate
requires."
Excerpt from The Curious Man by Dr. Hans Nieper:
"Since its initial introduction in my clinic, lithium orotate has played a major role in the treatment of depression. It does not trigger the harmful side effects that normally occur with high doses of lithium acetate, carbonate, or citrate, also used for depression. In
addition, I have found lithium orotate particularly beneficial in the treatment of migraine and frequently recurring headaches."
