Meat, seafood, eggs, milk, nuts, legumes and high water content plant foods (fruits and vegetables) are a generally good dietary sources of Lithium. Fats, grain-based and sugary foods are poor sources. If you're not lucky enough to live in an area with a high Lithium water supply, a low calorie density paleo-type or plant-based diet is probably the best way to ensure an optimal Lithium intake.

(Tomatoes are a particularly good source IIRC).

It looks like a plant-based diet is probably the best way to ensure optimal intake of most micronutrients. Plants and legumes contain a whole lot of micronutrients per calorie, especially compared to calorie-rich 'junk' food.

Or a meat and animal fat based diet.

Nuts and legumes are only two of the items on your list. Not sure how you get around to advocating a plant based diet based on that.

[zenon]

Not advocating anything, only pointing out that fatty and grain-based/sugar-based foods are low in Lithium (per calorie).

Meat, eggs, seafood, and nuts are very fatty. And all the better for it.
