Lithium Ascorbate Helps Protect the Brain from Alcohol Damage

 

Researchers tested how lithium ascorbate prevented and reduced damage created by alcohol consumption in rats.

How Was The Experiment Done?

Rats were given alcohol for two weeks. Some groups received it together with alcohol, some after. Then researchers observed rats’ behavior, conducted blood tests, and analyzed brain samples. 

Key Findings

Results are described in comparison to rats that received alcohol, but didn’t get lithium ascorbate.

  • Rats that received lithium ascorbate appeared to be calmer, more active, and less aggressive.

  • Treated rats had fewer seizures during alcohol withdrawal.

  • Brain samples showed better preservation of nerve insulation in rats treated with lithium ascorbate.

  • Blood samples of treated rats showed lower stress hormone levels and better liver function.

  • All the effects appeared at low doses of lithium ascorbate.

  • Giving higher doses didn’t add significant benefits.

Red columns represent placebo; green, blue, and violet columns represent different doses of lithium ascorbate. The first graph shows noradrenaline levels; the second shows adrenaline.

What Does It Mean For You?

This study suggests lithium ascorbate may protect the brain and reduce the harmful effects of alcohol, including nerve damage and withdrawal symptoms.
