The Lithium Salt March
From Grass Roots Petition to the Floors of the European Parliament
After months immersed in manuscripts and molecular pathways, I have delivered the final, 460‑page manuscript of The Conspiracy against Lithium.
The book follows lithium’s trail from the dawn of the universe to the frontiers of neuro‑immunology, weaving six independent lines of evidence into one conclusion: lithium is not simply a psychiatric drug but an essential trace element—indispensable for the brain’s “mental immune system” as well a healthy longevity.
When we lack it, rational compassion narrows, perspective taking becomes difficult, resilience fades, and conflict escalates. When even micro‑doses—one milligram a day—are restored, reason and peaceful compromising re‑emerge, hence what makes us human.
The Lithium Salt March
To translate science into action, I have launched what I call the Lithium Salt March: ten public lectures across Germany from 27 April to 8 June 2025. The journey is conceptually inspired by Gandhi’s historic protest against Britain’s salt tax—an homage, not a reenactment—and it targets an equally illogical policy: in the European Union a healthy milligram of lithium still requires a prescription, while ten milligrams of neuro‑toxic aluminum may be added to food with bureaucratic blessing.
During these eight weeks German residents can endorse our open national petition urging the government to recognize lithium as essential and lift the prescription barrier.
Please note: The platform automatically filters out non‑German signatures, so international supporters should not attempt to sign; your greatest contribution is to share this information widely. Later this year I will cross the Atlantic for a U.S. lecture tour, partnering with several well‑known media outlets to bring these findings directly to American audiences. Dates and venues will be announced here first.
The march reaches its crescendo on 17 June 2025 in Brussels, where I have been granted a full two‑hour session—ninety minutes of presentation plus Q&A—before members of the European Parliament, with simultaneous translation into several languages. (Of course, I’ll keep you updated on this event.) By then, I hope to carry not just data but the unmistakable signal of a public ready for evidence‑based policy.
For English readers
The international edition—The Conspiracy Against Lithium: The Suppressed Essential Nutrient and Its Benefits for Mental Health—is already in production with Skyhorse Publishing and will be released worldwide on October 7, 2025.
Pre‑order The Conspiracy Against Lithium
Lithium has become a litmus test of whether modern medicine will align with biology or with profit. I invite you to walk this path with me by amplifying the message across borders. Together we can restore a fundamental nutrient to every dinner table and, in doing so, strengthen the cognitive foundations of peace and democracy.
With determination and hope,
