Question 1

I've read on Reddit that some people get headaches when starting this. Is that normal?**

Accepted Answer

It can be, yes. A small percentage of new users report mild, temporary headaches or drowsiness, typically when starting with a full dose. We recommend starting with one capsule (5mg) every other day for the first week, then increasing to one daily. The body often adjusts quickly, and these effects usually fade within a few days.

Question 2

How does this differ from the high-dose lithium prescribed for bipolar disorder?**

Accepted Answer

This is a very important distinction. This supplement contains 5mg of *elemental* lithium, which is a micro-dose intended for general cognitive and brain health support. Prescription lithium carbonate typically contains 100-300mg of lithium and requires medical supervision. This low-dose version is safe for most adults and is designed for mood stability and focus, not for treating clinical conditions.

Question 3

The capsules look kind of big. Are they difficult to swallow?**

Accepted Answer

That's a fair observation. Our capsules are a standard size "00," which is common for supplements. While many people find them easy to swallow, some do prefer a smaller pill. If you struggle with large capsules, you can pull the capsule open and mix the powder into a smoothie or yogurt. It has a slightly bitter, metallic taste, so mixing with strong flavors works best.

Question 4

How long does it take to feel the effects on focus and brain health?**

Accepted Answer

Unlike a caffeine boost, lithium orotate works more subtly. Most users report noticing the benefits—a sense of calm, less "mental noise," and better concentration—after 2 to 4 weeks of consistent use. It's a cumulative supplement that supports brain health over time, rather than an instant stimulant.

Question 5

Is the "Third Party Tested" claim actually verifiable? And is it vegan?**

Accepted Answer

Yes to both. Double Wood Supplements sends every batch for third-party purity and potency testing, and a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is available on the product page for you to view. The capsules are made from vegetable cellulose (HPMC), and the formula contains no animal products, gelatin, or GMOs, making them fully vegan-friendly.
