Abstract
The invention provides a composition and method for reducing molecular defects in metastable tissue systems. Molecular defects represent spaces or vacancies in the structural order of the metastable system. The effect of molecular defects can be minimized such that the pre-defect order is preserved through the use of structure makers. These structure makers will then occupy the space or vacancy of the molecular defect, preserving the pre-defect order of the system. Lithium ions are a preferred structure maker.
