high-strength, absorbable citrate form providing 4mg of manganese, for normal energy-yielding metabolism, small, one-a-day, taste-free tablets, vegetarian & vegan friendly manganese is a neglected trace mineral, whose importance in cartilage production, bone health, brain function, & glucose management has not yet been fully appreciated. since a very low percentage of manganese is absorbed from dietary sources, a supplement is often recommended to cover any nutritional shortfalls. our high-performance manganese supplement provides this essential mineral in the form of citrate, a compound known to be well absorbed. each high-strength, one-a-day tablet delivers 4mg of manganese. many companies are selling 50mg tablets, despite the maximum tolerable intake being 11mg/day. these 50mg products far exceed this level & the side effects of high intakes like this are well documented. in our opinion, ours at 4mg are the ‘maximum safe level’. we’ve chosen to encapsulate our manganese supplement in small, easy-to-swallow, taste-free tablets instead of capsules since they can deliver highly concentrated levels of fine-grade manganese in a convenient dose. our manganese supplement formula is manufactured & packaged in uk factories working to rigorous good manufacturing practice (gmp) to ensure we meet our strict quality standards. this product is suitable for both vegetarians & vegans. want to learn more about our manganese supplement? drop a line to one of our expert nutrition advisors//aadvice//class=f-brand!important, who will be happy to answer any of your questions. what may manganese supplements contribute to? an essential trace mineral, manganese contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, the maintenance of normal bones, & the normal formation of connective tissue. it also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
