Abstract :Lithium (Li) is an alkaline microelement with highly functional properties. It has beneficial effects in many areas, including health, industry, and energy, in vital processes. Scientific investigations have revealed that it has a positive impact on individuals, prevents various behavioral issues, and has significant medical applications. Li is used in the treatment of mental disorders such as bipolar disorder, Alzheimer\\\'s disease, major depressive disorder, and mood stabilization. According to the researchers, Li is an essential trace element with a recommended daily intake of 1 mg/day for a 70-kg adult. Li level in food and beverages varies depending on the type and location of the food. In this context, it is crucial to determine the level of Li, a functional microelement, in the foods and beverages consumed for a healthy life. This review aims to inform about the importance of lithium and its levels in food, as well as draw attention to lithium bioavailability and the development of lithium-enriched functional foods and beverages.
