“…Cereals such as bread had values of 5.42 ± 0.92 mg/kg [17] and 0.01 mg/kg [57]; bread and cakes of 0.61 mg/kg [70]; breakfast cereals 3.15 ± 2.17 mg/kg [17], 0.88 mg/kg [70], 4.4 mg/kg [77]; pasta and grain 0.01 mg/kg [57]. The almonds and peanuts had 10.46 ± 6.69 and 8.95 ± 6.46 mg/kg in the USA, Spain, and Turkey [17], the soybean grains and seeds in Brazil contained between 8.00 and 11.20 mg/kg and in Poland had 8.80 mg/kg [78]. The sweet cakes had a significant Li content of 2.16 ± 0.90 mg/kg in Spain [17], compared with chocolate, candy bars, cakes, pies, and pastries (0.006 mg/kg), and biscuits and dry cakes (0.008 mg/kg).…”

Lithium (Li) is present in human nutrition based on food intake, and several studies recommend it for treating mood disorders, even if the biological proprieties and biochemical mechanisms represent the basis for its use as an essential element. The Li content was evaluated using the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry technique (ICP-MS) in 1071 food and beverage samples from the Romanian market. The results show that Li had a decreasing mean concentration in the food samples as follows: vegetables leafy > bulbous > fructose > leguminous > egg whites > root vegetables > milk products > egg yolks > meats. Approximately a quarter of all data from each dataset category was extreme values (range between the third quartile and maximum value), with only 10% below the detection limit. Mean Li concentration indicated higher values in red wine, white wines, beers, and fruit juice and lower in ciders and bottled waters. A particular interest was addressed to plants for teas and coffee seeds, which showed narrow amounts of Li. For both food and beverages, two similar matrices, including egg whites and yolks and white and red wines, were found to have significant differences, which explains the high variability of Li uptake in various matrices. For 99.65% of the analyzed samples, the estimated daily intake of Li was below the provisional subchronic and chronic reference dose (2 µg/kgbw/day) for adverse effects in several organs and systems. Even so, a risk occurs in consuming bulbous vegetables (Li > 13.47 mg/kg) and fructose solano vegetables (Li > 11.33 mg/kg). The present study’s findings indicate that ingesting most of the analyzed beverages and food samples could be considered safe, even if future studies regarding Li content, nutritional aspects, and human cohort diseases must be conducted.

“…However, these increments were limited at higher doses (20 and 25 mg kg −1 ). Foliar application of Li enhanced soybean grain yield by 10.73% at 45.7 mg kg −1 Li 2 SO 4 but reduced it by 20% at 120 mg kg −1 Li 2 SO 4 and by 49% at 120 mg kg −1 LiOH [ 71 ]. Furthermore, foliar spraying of 10–40 mg kg −1 LiOH and Li 2 SO 4 increased lettuce root dry weight by 31% and 18%, respectively, at lower to medium concentrations (20 and 30 mg kg −1 ), while at 40 mg kg −1, a significant reduction (22%) was noted [ 72 ] ( Table 1 ).…”

“…A simple and sustainable technique to screen plant is foliar application which tolerate and accumulate As in Chelidonium majus cultivation [38]. For bio-fortification of soybean grains, Li 2 SO 4 and LiOH are good sources [39]. Foliar treatment with FeSO 4 in eggplant lead to significant increase in quantum yield of photosystem (PS II), SPAD index, photochemistry (F v /F m ) and performance index (PI) values of both old and young leaves [40].…”

Background The most important advantages of foliar fertilization are to improve plant growth and crop quality, appropriately manage the nutritional status of plants, enhance disease resistance and regulate nutrient deficiencies. Main body The aim of this manuscript is to outline and emphasize the importance of foliar application of nutrients in order to increase both quality and yield of medicinal and aromatic plants. The searches focused on publications from 1980 to July 2021 using PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct and Scopus databases. The current manuscript presented many examples of potential of foliar application for medicinal and aromatic plants production systems. Foliar application of Fe and Zn on Anise; Se on Atractylodes; Zn sulfate on Basil, Costmary, Mint and Fenugreek; Se and Fe on Stevia; S and P on castor bean; Zn and Fe on Chamomile; Cu, Mg and ZnSO4 on Damask rose; N and P on Fennel; Se on water spinach and tea; K+ and Ca2+ on Thyme; Zn and K on Spearmint; Zn on Saffron, Ni on Pot marigold; Fe on peppermint, N and P on Mustard had positive and significant impacts. Conclusion Observed impacts of foliar fertilization consisted of significant increase of yield, enhanced resistance to insects, pests and diseases, improved drought tolerance and escalated crop quality.
