There's some very preliminary but intriguing research looking at lithium Aspartate as a potential therapy for the fatigue and brain fog of ME/CFS. The theory behind it is that Lithium can reduce inflammation in the brain.
When lithium is prescribed for bipolar disorder the minimum dose is around 900 mg of lithium Carbonate, and it can cause serious side effects. However, this paper is talking about doses of 45 mg or less of Lithium aspartate. The research is being done at the University of Buffalo medical school.
FYI: Lithium aspartate (C4H6LiNO4) Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3)
