Manganese is found in the cellular mitochondrion and is an important co-factor in energy production. Proper cellular mitochondrion function is essential for energy production, and manganese supports mitochondrion health through the activation of the superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme.

The SOD enzyme works to maintain healthy mitochondrion oxidant levels, thereby supporting mitochondrion health, mitochondrion function and mitochondrial energy production.

Manganese is essential to health because the body uses manganese to support proper bone, skin, cartilage and collagen production. In this way, manganese may support bone, skin and joint health.

Additionally, manganese supports healthy brain and nerve function, and it plays a key role in the proper digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates by supporting digestive enzymes health.

Finally, manganese may aid in the absorption of choline, thiamin and ascorbic acid and encourage glucose tolerance. Manganese absorption may be inhibited by iron, zinc or calcium.1
