Lithium is an essential nutrient which prevents mental disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (a form of dementia that results in the loss of mental functions such as memory, thought and speech) and dementia (the gradual loss of mental abilities). In this article I will be discussing this nutrient in greater detail and providing you with a summary of its main functions, the best food sources, the recommended daily allowances (RDAs) and the potentially adverse effects of consuming too much or too little.1) DISCOVERY:Lithium was first discovered in Switzerland in 1800 when the Brazilian scientist Jozee Bonifacio de Andrada e Silva discovered petalite (a mineral which contains lithium). In 1817 the Swedish chemist Johan August Arfwedson studied petalite and concluded that 10% of this mineral was a new element which he named lithium. A year later in 1818 both the Swedish chemist William Thomas Brand and English chemist Sir Humphry Davy managed to isolate lithium from petalite.2) FUNCTION:As discussed above, the main role of lithium in the human body is to prevent mental disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
