And what?

The potato contains lithium, a vital trace element that is impossible to get into the preparation, it is sold as a drugs in the same rigor. And of potatoes can be taken without a prescription!

And the question is: why lithium is needed?

And it turns out, lithium has psychoactive effects and is used for the prevention and treatment of mental illness ... is effective in preventing mania, depression, and reduces the risk of suicide ... is used in psychiatry for mood stabilization of people suffering from bipolar disorder and frequent mood swings ...

And yet! Lithium is used as a cure for alcoholism. It has been established that lithium nicotinate improves hemodynamic and metabolic processes, reduces affective disorder.

People! Eat potatoes with a hangover!
