Одним из критериев эссенциальности (жизненной необходимости) микроэлемента является постоянное его присутствие в питьевой воде из природных источников. Содержание лития в водной среде существенно зависит от географического региона. Концентрация Li составляет от 0,07 до 40 мкг/л в пресной воде и от 170 до 190 мкг/л в морской. В грунтовых водах концентрация иона Li обычно выше, чем в поверхностных, – 0,05–150 мкг/л. Метаанализ 157 публикаций показал, что средняя концентрация Li в образцах питьевой воды составила 5,4 мкг/л. Анализ бутилированной природной минеральной воды 18 наименований позволил разделить образцы на две группы: с низким содержанием Li (до 11 мкг Li/л) и с высоким содержанием Li (более 100 мкг/л). Многочисленные клинико-эпидемиологические исследования подтвердили, что более высокий уровень лития в питьевой воде, потребляемой населением, связан с более низким уровнем самоубийств и преступлений, связанных с агрессией. Концентрация Li в питьевой воде является основным фактором, существенно влияющим на его ежесуточное потребление и на реализацию биологических эффектов ионов. В России большинство исследованных источников питьевой воды содержит малые количества лития (от 3 до 160 мкг/л). Поэтому при необходимости восполнения дефицита Li россиянам можно использовать специальную лечебно-столовую бутилированную воду или витаминно-минеральные комплексы на основе нетоксичных солей лития с органическими анионами.</p><sec><title>Вклад авторов</title><p>Вклад авторов.

One criterion for the essentiality of a micronutrient is its constant presence in drinking water from natural sources. The lithium content in the aquatic environment varies significantly depending on the geographic area. Lithium is present in varying concentrations in the aquatic environment: from 0.07 to 40 µg/L in fresh water and from 170 to 190 µg/L in seawater. In groundwater, the concentration of Li ion is usually higher than in surface water and ranges from 0.05 to 150 µg/L. A meta-analysis of one hundred fifty seven reports showed that the average Li concentration in various drinking water samples was 5.4 µg/L. An analysis of lithium content in 18 brands of bottled natural mineral water showed two groups of waters: with a low Li content (up to 11 µg Li/l) and with a high Li content (more than 100 µg/l). Numerous clinical and epidemiological studies have confirmed higher lithium levels in public drinking water to be associated with lower suicide rates and aggressive crime. The concentration of lithium in drinking water is the main factor that significantly affects its daily consumption and the implementation of the biological effects of lithium ions. In Russia, most of the studied drinking water sources contain very small amounts of lithium (from 3 to 160 µg/L). Therefore, if it is necessary to replenish the lithium deficiency, Russians can use special medicinal table bottled water or vitamin and mineral complexes based on non-toxic lithium salts with organic anions.</p><sec><title>Contribution</title><p>Contribution.
