⚙️ How it works

Lithium is a mineral that, at prescription levels, is used to treat certain mood disorders, but in supplements it’s provided at much lower doses

It may support neurotransmitter balance and brain health

Some users report a sense of calm or improved mood, though scientific evidence at supplement doses is limited

👍 Pros

Simple once‑daily use

Could be beneficial as part of a broader wellness routine

Low evidence: Limited research on benefits at supplement doses

Not a substitute for medically prescribed lithium or mental‑health treatment

Some people may be sensitive; start with lower doses

Avoid if pregnant, breastfeeding, or on medications without professional guidance
