The most expensive trace element in the world – because it costs nothing

 

A medical and SOCIETAL Revolution

Lithium is a trace element that has been essential to the development of all life since time immemorial. Humans are no exception.

But unfortunately, a widespread deficiency exists that diminishes our quality of life. It leads to an increase in depression and Alzheimer’s disease, more admissions to psychiatric hospitals, more violent behavior, higher suicide rates, and ultimately even a shortened lifespan!

The fatal consequences of this deficiency are sold to us as unavoidable normality, while the responsible authorities simultaneously refuse to acknowledge the essential importance of this trace element. In a particularly perfidious twist, lithium-containing supplements are even banned in Europe – as well as in most other countries worldwide. The fact that many behavior disorders due to deficiency in children are commonly (and unsuccessfully) treated with side-effect-heavy but highly lucrative medications, suggests that financial interests may be behind this scandal. But is it just about profit? Or are we dealing with a perverse claim to power over the human mind? Who benefits from a society that grows increasingly ill – physically and mentally – and lives in constant fear of the future?

“The Conspiracy Against Lithium“

Michael Nehls’ newest book “The Conspiracy Against Lithium” offers urgently needed answers and serves as a medical plea for the long-overdue recognition of lithium’s essential role as a key to a healthier, more mentally stable, and peaceful society. After all, it offers powerful, natural protection against chronic inflammation, neurotoxic stress, and anxiety disorders. Ailments that have now reached pandemic proportions. Essential lithium could become the symbol of humanity’s breakthrough into a new era of medicine – one that meets the natural needs of the human being.

Globally, mental performance is declining, particularly among young people, while rates of depression are skyrocketing.

One in forty people now suffers from Alzheimer’s, and the age of onset is dropping rapidly.

But the causes are not being addressed – on the contrary. Can that really be coincidence?

So why isn’t lithium already part of our basic healthcare?

Short answer: Because it benefits no one looking to profit.

Long answer: Because lithium is not officially recognized as essential. Despite clear data, health authorities stubbornly refuse to grant lithium the status it deserves. Why? Because there’s no money in prevention. How much does one milligram of lithium cost? Almost nothing.

And that’s exactly the problem: Lithium is so cheap, it’s simply not profitable for pharmaceutical companies. No patents, no blockbuster drugs, no thousand-franc-a-month therapies. Just a few cents a day.

Anyone wondering why, in a system that calls itself a healthcare system, healthy people are economically undesirable – has understood the system.
