Life Extension Lithium 1000 mcg – Brain Health & Mood – 100 Vegetarian Capsules

LITHIUM & HEALTHY LIFE SPAN

Lithium, according to recent studies, may support longevity. This is due to data suggesting a link between long-term, high-dose lithium treatment and normal telomere length. Our DNA strands' "endcaps" (also known as telomeres), which guard our chromosomes' vulnerable ends, get shorter with age. So your odds of maintaining the health of your DNA are increased the longer you maintain the health of your telomeres.

WHY LITHIUM 

According to research, some patients taking long-term, high-dose lithium regimens have telomeres that are longer than normal. Furthermore, one study discovered a weak relationship between human mortality and lifespan and lithium levels found in tap water (at much lower amounts). Additionally, there is some evidence that lithium may prevent cellular senescence—a normal aspect of aging in which cells no longer perform at their best—and support healthy circadian rhythms.

A BODYGUARD FOR YOUR BRAIN

Lithium appears to encourage the breakdown of these stored brain proteins and enhance the brain's natural process for removing cellular waste from your brain cells, according to preclinical studies.
