Thanks for that link, I’ll follow up on it tonight hopefully at the drugstore. If there are others reading, lurking here too, they may benefit too since Lithium Orotate appears to be used for a wide variety of needs:
ADD
ADHD
BP
PTSD
as well as:
alzheimers
alcoholism
aggression
stress
Wiki does warn the Orotate may cause kidney problems so I plan to purchase some Lithium Carbonate too if I can find it.
Plus, it is claimed to improve memory too. After I first read about BP [around 20 years ago], I got a cassette tape in the mail entitled: “Dead Doctors don’t Lie”. These 2 things started me on a quest investigating minerals and their health benefits. The tape was recorded by a veterinarian who claimed physicians/MDs died on average 10 years prior to their patients.
Some years prior a good friend lost her father due to an aneurysm. He was a great man and an exceptional neurosugeon who had saved another of my friend’s life in college following a car accident.
All these events gelled and got me to looking at many different alternative medicines and healthy lifestyles, partly b/c in my mid-thirties I was well on my way to colon cancer. I tried all kinds of diet and exercise [an apple a day helped the most but not enough] until finally I went to a chiropractor. I never had the colonoscopy my MD advised at 39 yo, but all my symptoms began to dissipate within the first 3 months of intensive back-cracking [much thanks to Dr. Aaron].
WARNING: Graphic details follow...
Before the chiro I’d investigated the colon treatment and found they’d charge 3-4k for the colon/rectum scraping and then re-test every 5 years just in case they needed to do it again - yikes. The worst part though, if the polyps [scraped from the colon wall] sent in for testing are cancerous then there is a chance the scraping could release the cancer cells into your bloodstream - double yikes. DYK that modern MDs no longer are required to take the hippocratic oath of “first do no harm”? And they deign to call chiropractor ‘quacks’ ha!
How bad were my symptoms? My MD ordered a blood occult test from my stool sample, I sometimes got so constipated that I’d turn the toilet bowl blood red when I was finally relieved. A couple of times I nearly passed out on the throne as the blood rushed from my head. I was afraid to eat anything with cheese and I also avoided alcohol completely. Nothing in my diet or exercise could solve this problem.
If you want to know more about chiropractic care see my homepage [found 2 very good books on the subject]. I’m healthier now than I’ve been in a long time - feels more like my early twenties, but I’m 51 and have not seen an MD in 12 years!
Two things:
1. I own the tape Dead Doctors Don’t Lie. I haven’t listened to it in a while, though.
2. My chiropractor has a picture on his wall of a guys back that had one disk that was REALLY out of allignment. The reason? He explained that there are three types of nerves coming out of each vertebrea. One is the one that causes pain when it is pinched. The other two are either for maintenance of organs or repair of organs. I’m giving the simplistic explanation here. Anyway, the nerves in the picture were clearly atrophied, but the one that would cause pain did not. However, the others controlled the kidneys. The guy died of kidney failure.
I started going to the Chiropractore at age 32 and am now 59. My back has, since that time, felt better than it did in my 20’s. I know this becaus it had always been painful to wash my car before that time. With the exception of a couple of bouts of back injury, that has not happened since.
BTW, If you have not seen it, go to youtube and search for the movie, “The Beautiful Truth”. The whole thing is there. It is like “Dead Doctors Don’t Lie” on steroids.
