There is no lithium in the human body naturally. There are minute traces in bodily fluids such as plasma, sliva and urine, but it has no known function. Lithium isonly evident if it has been administered for medical reasons such as the treatment of Bipolar mood disorder.
Some sources state that lithium seems to have no biological role, but ingestion can have both positive and negative effects on the body. (WebElements) Studies suggest that lithium is an important part of the diet, as "low levels of lithium in drinking water have been correlated with a higher incidence of mental hospital admissions, violent crime, suicide, drug addiction, and Heart disease." (Intelegen) It is beneficial for the health of the nervous system (a more detailed breakdown of why/how is included in the link provided - eg, Intelegen), and has medicinal applications in treatment of Bipolar disorder with possible benefits in a future treatment for Alzheimer's.
"Lithium appears to play an especially important role during the early fetal development as evidenced by the high lithium contents of the embryo during the early gestational period." (Journal of the American College of Nutrition). The reason for this (concluded from studies on animals) is that lithium has demonstrated a role in the expansion of the pluripotential stem cell pool to more mature progenitor cells and blood elements. Additionally, the amount of lithium in the developing organs is highest in the first trimester, then declines (as is true for other elements).
Aside from its functions during the gestation period, "the biochemical mechanisms of action of lithium appear to be multifactorial and are intercorrelated with the functions of several enzymes, hormones and vitamins, as well as with growth and transforming factors." (JACN)
its found in human body in the tissues and arteries in combination with blood
in your bladder
Thorium has no biological role. Thorium is a heavy, radioactive metal which is not used in the human body.
Oxygen is very much important for the human body. Oxygen plays a vital role in the breathing processes and in the metabolism of the living organisms.
Ferrous is content of heamoglobin....its useful in d synthesis of heamoglobin......
there are many elements are found in human body for example- carbon , oxygen , potassium , sodium , nitrogen, hydrogen , calcium , phosphorus etc. these element are many important in human body. calcium are strong the bone, teeth and mussels . oxygen are many important role in human body . oxygen is use of respiration and blood purification .
I dont know but inside it makes your bones stronger. I got all of this from Mrs. Berry
the role of the pharynx is what helpes people bring down the food
tendons helps to attach muscles to the bones
they are both part of the heart
The human body needs water to strive. Being properly hydrated does play a role in growing, but its main purpose is to keep the human body healthy.
Oxygen plays a massive role in the human body. Oxygen is responsible for delivering nutrients to the cells in the human body.
are antigen apart of the body's natural defense against infections
Oxygen plays a massive role in the human body. Oxygen is responsible for delivering nutrients to the cells in the human body.
the body has a hard time to metabolize fat
The ARSE gene (also known as: "Arylsulfatase E", with its symbols "ASE", "CDPX", "CDPX1" or "CDPXR") is linked to the development of both bones and cartilage in the human body.

Alkaline earth metals in the body play a huge role in health. For instance, calcium is the fifth most abundant in the human body. You need calcium for strong bones.
