Can you cite a source for your claim about lithium? It sounds interesting.

He's probably going off my section on lithium: http://www.gwern.net/Nootropics#lithium

Ah, yes. Sounds like it. Interestingly, the Quantified Health Prize winner also recommends low-dose lithium, but for a different reason: its effect on long-term neural health.

I don't think it's really a different reason; also, AFAIK I copied all the QHP citations into my section.
