Have you ever been on Lithium? I searched pub med a lot yesterday regarding dementia and it does seem like Lithium could be helpful. Areas w/ higher lithium levels in the ground water have less incidence of dementia - stuff like that.
I know there was a study a few years back that showed continued use of Lithium also leads to increased grey matter in the brain.
I have a ton of old Lithium Carbonate. I used to enjoy it at 600mg along w/ Marplan. After a couple years though I realized Lithium (+Marplan) was causing my blood pressure to get very high (160/95 average). At that point I came off Lithium.
I may try to "microdose" it a bit though....I don't think it takes much to get some benefit.
