Hello Dr Bob,
Re: Lithium carbonate contains 18.8mg of elemental lithium per 100mg per 100mg (57mg per 300mg, 113mg per 600mg). Most lithium orotate compounds contains 3.83mg of elemental lithium per 100mg (4.8mg per 120mg). Thread link:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/alter/20031218/msgs/292479.htmlOne of the supplement vendors used by our Naturopathic Physician is Vital Nutrients (based in Middletown, CT). They claim their lithium (orotate) 20mg (stated on the label that way) provides 20mg of elemental lithium. Based on your information provided in an email to the forum dated December 22, 2003, I feel that information is not correct.
Could you provide literature I could share with Vital Nutrients explaining the difference between LiO and elemental lithium?
I appreciate any info you can provide.
