Lithium Orotate

Description

Size: 200 tablets
Serving: 120 mg per tab

Lithium Orotate is an organic form of the mineral Lithium and one of Dr. Hans Nieper’s formulas that primarily supports the Nervous System and the Digestive System. Orotate is the salt of a crystalline acid called orotic acid which “occurs in milk and is a growth factor for various microorganisms (as Lactobacillus bulgaricus) and a precursor of the pyrimidine bases of nucleotides”. Lithium aids in keeping the nervous system calm and ‘in rhythm’ and stabilizing our moods. A deficiency can result in nervousness, anxiety, mood swings and even manic-depressive states. Drink 8-10 glasses of water when supplementing with Lithium and stay off alcohol and low salt diets.
