Lithium Linked to Alzheimer’s Disease, New Treatment Hope

Researchers at Harvard Medical School have spent seven years investigating the link between lithium and Alzheimer’s disease. Their findings suggest that the loss of lithium plays a significant role in the progression of the disease. This discovery could lead to earlier detection, new treatments, and a better understanding of how the brain ages. The study’s results shed light on the potential therapeutic benefits of lithium in reversing Alzheimer’s symptoms.
