Hmmm, ok, which of my crystals specifically? I do not remember talking about crystals on kb other than sharing some photos sporadically. So I'm not sure where your hypocrisy angle is coming from? I'm not trying to be a smart alec, I'm genuinely ready to answer any questions you have to put to me as best I can.Originally Posted by Katman

You're quick to demand some sort of absolute proof for one thing, yet you're happy to rely on blind faith for another.
Kiwibiker
Crystals is really a big subject, which is why I asked you for some sort of specific question.
Yes, there are people that do crystal healing utilizing what many would term as blind faith, myself included at times and I'm happy to expand on why that is if you do have any specific questions regarding that aspect of crystal healing.
However, crystals are also used in mainstream medicine as well. Lithium is one of those crystals.
Not only does lithium help power devices, it is also used in treating the medical disorders listed below.
1. Bipolar Disorder (Mania and Maintenance)
Lithium is considered the gold standard treatment for bipolar disorder. It helps:
Treat acute manic episodes
Reduce severity and frequency of mood swings
Prevent relapse of both mania and depression
Stabilise long-term mood in bipolar patients
This is its most common medical use worldwide.
2. Suicide-Prevention
Lithium is one of the few psychiatric medications proven to reduce the risk of suicide in people with mood disorders. This effect appears independent of its mood-stabilising effect.
3. Treatment-Resistant Depression
In major depressive disorder that doesn’t respond to standard antidepressants, lithium is sometimes added as an “augmentation” therapy to improve results.
4. Schizoaffective Disorder
Lithium can be used in combination with antipsychotics to help manage mood instability in certain cases.
How Lithium Works (Simplified)
Scientists still don’t fully understand the exact mechanism, but lithium appears to:
Regulate key neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, glutamate)
Protect neurons and improve neuronal resilience
Influence cell signaling pathways (e.g., second messenger systems)
Reduce inflammation in the brain
Here is a list of peer reviewed studies on lithium.
1. Bipolar Disorder (Mood Stabilization)
Lithium is one of the most researched psychiatric medications ever.
Key studies:
Cade, 1949 – First published clinical trial showing lithium reduced mania.
Baldessarini et al., 2000s – Multiple analyses confirming lithium prevents relapse in bipolar disorder.
Severus et al., The Lancet Psychiatry 2014 – Large review concluding lithium remains the most effective long-term mood stabiliser.
2. Suicide Prevention
Lithium is unique in that it reduces suicide risk, and this effect is consistent across studies.
Major peer-reviewed research:
Baldessarini et al., Bipolar Disorders 2006
Meta-analysis showing lithium dramatically reduces suicide attempts and deaths in bipolar patients.
Cipriani et al., BMJ 2013
Found lithium was more effective at preventing suicide than other mood stabilizers and antidepressants.
Smith & Cipriani, The Lancet 2017
Review confirming lithium’s anti-suicidal effect even at moderate serum levels.
3. Treatment-Resistant Depression
Lithium is often added when antidepressants don’t work.
Evidence:
Bauer et al., Psychological Medicine 2010
Demonstrated lithium augmentation significantly improves outcomes in major depression.
Taylor et al., Cochrane Review 2020
Found strong evidence that lithium is effective as an add-on treatment for resistant depression.
4. Neuroprotective Effects
Research shows lithium may have brain-protective properties, such as:
Increasing grey matter
Promoting neuronal growth
Reducing inflammation
Examples:
Moore et al., Lancet 2000
MRI study showing increased grey matter volume in patients on lithium.
Chiu et al., Neuropsychopharmacology 2013
Shows lithium promotes neurogenesis and protects neurons from oxidative damage.
Malhi et al., Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry 2017
Review of lithium as a neurotrophic agent.
5. Alzheimer’s & Dementia Studies
Some research suggests low-dose lithium may slow cognitive decline, though findings are mixed.
Examples:
Forlenza et al., British Journal of Psychiatry 2011
Low-dose lithium slowed progression of Alzheimer’s disease markers.
Matsunaga et al., Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease 2015
Meta-analysis showing lithium improved cognition in mild impairment.
6. Schizoaffective Disorder & Combination Therapy
Lithium is sometimes used alongside antipsychotics in complex mood + psychosis states.
Leucht et al., Schizophrenia Research 2015
Found lithium can reduce mood symptoms when added to antipsychotic treatment.
7. Monitoring, Thyroid & Kidney Effects
Because lithium has a narrow therapeutic range, long-term effects are also well studied.
Examples:
McKnight et al., Lancet 2012
Meta-analysis documenting kidney and thyroid risks and offering monitoring guidelines.
Gitlin, Journal of Psychiatric Practice 2016
Clinical monitoring recommendations for safe long-term lithium use.
Katman, here is one of the nicest lithium specimens I have sold below.......(unfortunately the mine was sold for battery making purposes, so they crush specimens like this now)

I see you are now resorting to narcissistic projection.
A psychological defence mechanism where individuals with narcissistic traits, unconsciously attribute their own negative behaviours, flaws, and unacceptable feelings onto others. This tactic helps them avoid shame and protect their fragile self-esteem by shifting blame and responsibility away from themselves.
Whats hilarious is you never answer any questions yourself.
Just Like the time you claimed farmers send 100kg plus rodeo calves to the works when the works don't accept cattle this size.
Or that time you claimed there were numerous alternatives to 1080 on the vast inaccessible areas of NZ, yet you couldn't name a single one.
Or that time you claimed some animals were poisoned on their own property by 1080, when by the owner's own admission, they had wandered into a DOC area.
Or that time you posted an engine (the Geet)that was a well-known fraud, that was supposed to run on coffee or water and you refused to admit it was a made-up piece of shit. You even called him a modern-day Nikola Tesla when in truth, he said he got the technology from an angel named Mrs Cunningham. Yet He invented nothing other than reusing a new way to scam the money of idiots.
Or that time you claimed there were no gas chambers at in German concentration camps, when even the two convicted fraudsters you quoted as being proof there were none, admitted freely themselves that it was obvious there were gas chambers.
Or that time you kept claiming ad nauseam, the WTC buildings fell at free-fall speed, when they clearly did not
Or that time you claimed they collapsed into their own footprints when they clearly did not.
Or that time when you quoted state trooper Lyle Szupink as saying something, he clearly did not, about United Airlines Flight 93.
Or that time you claimed over and over that an engine was found to be a distance away from the crash site when it was in fact, found less than a third of that distance.
Or that time you kept claiming passports, which were never found intact after a high-speed impact like 911, when in fact they commonly are.
Or that time you claimed the UFA investigation was independent, full or transparent, when it was clearly none of these three.
Or those times you repeatedly make and pass on false claims about vaccines and vaccine safety, often implying you know more than genuine medical experts, when you have no medical training at all.
Or that time you claimed it was uncommon for bikes to have footpegs mounted to the swingarm when tens, if not 100's of millions of bikes were made in over 120 models with this exact setup.
Or that time you made all these claims about turbo cancer when it doesn't actually exist outside the imagination of a tiny group of of tiny pecker conspiracy idiots
Or that time you claimed to have provided plenty of links to studies that suggest many vaccines aren't as safe and effective yet when challenged failed to provide a single occasion or even link to a credible study.
Sugi unfortunately here is not enough lithium in a tesla to treat Karen.

You should send some to the Berk.

Can't you even get your own material.
Are you that desperate project your own deficiencies on others FFS.
Out of interest and transparency. So is that 5 or 6 forum sites you have been banned from now?

Medical staff at the CDC have stated that the vaccines/autism notice was written by political appointments not medical staff. No surprises there.

I too would be concerned especially given his total lack of qualification in medicine that was disciplined by the Maryland medical board for practicing medicine without a license.

You are right of course, the 13 peer reviewed studies listed in my post when matched to your zero peer reviewed studies over the 12 year lifespan of this thread is pretty hilerious right?

Exactly They quaffed down the out and out lies told to them about the lethality of the virus (now determined to have a lethality of less than 1%) and willingly mainlined an unproven (except for the HIDDEN side effects that were subsequently found) completely new medical treatment touted as safe & effective (yet didn't work to stop either contraction of or shedding of the virus) A virus that was man made and paid for by the CDC and NIH.... the very agencies headed by the liars whose lies they are now attempting to defend.
Too stupid to acknowledge the reality of the lies (of they who Kennedy fired) exposed during recorded senate and congressional hearings that have been submitted in this thread for the consideration of their closed minds.

You provided a list of studies showing the benefit of lithium as a medication.
The crystals you sell are primarily intended for people to sit cross legged with them in their laps while they chant OMMMMM.
Forum whore
To be fair, we were all waiting for you to ask a specific question but you didn't.
flyingcrocodile sounds like he will be into crystals. See, loads in common between you all.
Forum whore
I did ask him a specific question.
I asked if he recognised his hypocrisy.
