#190: Mapping Nutritional Lithium with Dr. James Greenblatt

But Dr. Greenblatt has made it a part of his mission to understand the nutritional deficiencies associated with these behaviors and address them with a functional medicine approach. As you’ll hear today, his approach includes the use of nutritional lithium and Dr. Greenblatt will help us to connect the dots between this little understood nutrient and clinical success.
