What is Rubidium?
Rubidium is present in seawater, the earth's crust and in the human body. Its atomic number is 37 with a atomic weight of 85.4678. Rubidium is a silvery white mineral in alkaline earth metals, group IIA metals. Rubidium is the most electropositive of the alkaline elements. It can be a liquid at ambient temperature of 40 0 C. Like all alkali metals, rubidium forms amalgams with mercury . Rubidium is similarly reactive as other alkali metals in the same group, ie. Lithium, sodium, potassium and cesium.

Is it toxic?
Rubidium is a relatively non-toxic element that has not been shown to have toxicological concern from the nutritional viewpoint. However, this element should never be used without proper supervision.

What can it be used for nutritionally?
The main focus is on depression, however, there have been studies done by Dr. Keith Brewer using rubidium in alkalizing mineral therapy.

Who should not take rubidium?
Do not take for bi-polar condition (manic depression).

How does it work?
Depression: “Your nerve cells and other cells use specialized enzymes to transform the essential amino acid phenylalanine and its derivative tyrosine into the neurotransmitters noradrenalin, adrenalin, and dopamine. These three neurotransmitters are part of a group classified as catecolamines, and increasing levels of them in your brain has a well-known, significant antidepressant effect. Dr. Wright goes on to say, “Rubidium stimulates the enzymes that use phenylalanine and tyrosine to produce catecholamines. In additition to simulating catecholamine build-up, rubidium also slows their breakdown and keeps them working longer.”

"Rubidium is a member of the same mineral family as lithium, sodium, and potassium. Reviewers have pointed out that rubidium and potassium behave in many of the same ways, as do lithium and sodium. Potassium and rubidium are mostly found inside the cells; sodium and lithium are mostly found outside the cells. Potassium given in excess or too rapidly intravenously can be dangerous, even causing deaths; rubidium can do the same. So except in very small doses rubidium should always be taken orally.”

How is it taken?
Orally, as instructed by a qualified health care professional. It is recommended that you take it with food.

Are their any side effects?
Side effects that have been noted are; gastric discomfort, constipation, diarrhea, agitation, insomnia, and transient decrease in heart and pulse rate. Some instances of skin rashes and frequent urination have been noted in some individuals.

Where can you find it in food?
Foods high in rubidium include black tea, coffee, fruits, vegetables, fish and poultry.

What is the RDA?
There is no established RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance). The typical daily dietary intake of rubidium is between 1 and 5 milligrams.
