Manganese with very high bioavailability

Science-Backed

The trace element manganese is mainly found in the bones, liver, kidneys, pancreas, adrenal glands, pituitary gland and in the mitochondria. Although it is present only in small amounts, it plays an important role in many body functions.

Manganese activates various enzymes in the body and is even part of some enzymes. Therefore, it plays an important role in many metabolic processes and a deficiency can lead to the disturbance of many body functions. Manganese is also involved in the metabolism of vitamin C, E, choline and B vitamins.

Manganese is essential for

• the carbohydrate- and fat metabolism
• the buildup of bone structure
• collagen formation and wound healing
• a normal function of the thyroid
• for proper function of the brain- and nerves
• the regulation of glucose utilization
• the detoxification of the body
• protecting the mitochondria from damage caused by oxidative stress
• the normal function of the reproductive system
• optimal blood clothing together with Vitamin K2

Sign of Manganese deficiency

• impaired bone demineralization
• impaired growth and skeletal abnormalities
• impaired reproductive function
• reduced defence of free radicals on the cellular level
• reduced defense against infections
• impaired fat-, cholesterol - and carbohydrate metabolism
• impaired neurological function
• joint- and ligament pain
• impaired glucose metabolism
• skin rash, dermatitis and psoriasis
• slow hair growth
