Incredible finding, will study it.This is a mention of copper's electronic role in bone from a book @Nick recommended to me that I've become obsessed with.
Robert Becker [The Body Electric] meets Albert Szent-Gyorgyi:

@electricsematic Regular copper supplementation (8mg/d) in lieu of ensuring such a ridiculous amount in my diet has been working to sustain a natural cycle of startings and closings in my life. There is a backlog of closure (detoxification, elimination) and new beginnings are fewer and less often but wider and deeper, so to speak.
I believe adequate copper has normalized my calcium requirement. I regain nervous balance quickly after acute stress on around 2 grams a day, after a few weeks needing ~5 g to level out periodic adrenaline spikes.
Whole matter of beginnings and closure will necessarily render us a physics of minerals, the matter is quite complex than a steadily high calcium and high copper state. They represent different axis of a dynamical system. I become inevitably closer to a viewpoint that, eventhough anabolic resettings are necessary for the centripetal intuition of life, one need to delve into necessary catabolisms of the vicinity with corresponding mineral states to be able to make closures in any work previously started. Simply, the system has more than one dimension.

I have felt a need to make an update on lithium.
Apart from copper, it seems there are known or unknown substances which can be depleted in very high oxidative states, as well as in cases of extreme stress. In fact the latter is also a very high oxidative state but its center is outside of the body, a meta-metabolism, literally, burns you away. (Remember the relation manic-affective diseases with a lack of lithium, or more correctly, extreme chronic depletion of lithium.)
I have recently noticed that even though I always fill my copper state with various high copper vegetables, I had still a need of something, especially after drinking too much coffee, no amount of safe vegetable (I avoided some others since they were "irritative" to me, such as tomatoes, brassica, or seeds of green beans or other vegetables) or no amount of b vitamins could bring me back to my former relaxed and contained state, and the situation becomes worse as the months passed.
Interestingly, only foods working in such states, tomatoes, garlic, potatoes (dextrinized), cauliflower or other brassica and surprisingly, seeds of vegetables and well-cooked lentils, even if the latter two has strong anti-thyroid features. Finishing non-explorative casual work was only possible after those, and as for explorative work, that even started to become harder to track. Plus, I had an insatiable craving for mussels, as well as very high amount of salt. (Remember salt's affinity with lithium and lithium being much more smaller. Ray says in Thyroid&Insanities: In the periodic table of the elements, lithium is immediately above sodium, meaning that it has the chemical properties of sodium, but with a smaller atomic radius, which makes its electrical charge more intense. Its physiological effects are so close to sodium’s that we can get clues to sodium’s actions by watching what lithium does.)
After a meal of salmon, I have noticed that the taste of those are the same for what I crave for some time. I looked at high lithium foods, found mustard and cumin as a high lithium food (maybe black cumin is also on the same list). I tried those as well as concentrated tomato paste, the replenishment feeling is the same in all. All the foods I have listed have high lithium (as well as having high copper). I concluded that for months I had a serious lithium depletion. And further, since civilized life also creates the lack of lithium, we can found tomato paste, ketchup, mustard everywhere. They are not only condiments for enjoyment, more correctly the taste-wise enjoyment always works for the lack of some very important minerals.
A same kind of relation also holds for aspirin. More than 30-40 miligrams of salycillates in one sitting now for me creates a lack of lithium, and K1, and possibly others.
Will continue later in the intricacies of the matter. And will try higher doses of lithium carbonate, or others, then update here.
