I don’t see anyone previously posted this - but I really found this OptiSpan podcast excellent on the subject of Lithium (and Rapamycin). Very interesting stuff!

i thought so too. Particularly their speculations on the mechanisms involved. Do you know the test they refer to? (from memory it was for tau and amyloid fragment to amyloid ratio).
Interested to see if it accessible on the UK

I’ve been using it off and on for years. I think it takes off the happy edge too. My mother always thought I was too happy…I do enjoy life, the lithium takes that off and makes me more normal which I consider bad.
If times are tough, it comes through big and helps to stay steady in the storm. I take 5mg.
