In this video, I explain what manganese is and why it has important benefits for your health. Manganese is very different from magnesium. Manganese is a trace mineral, which means you need it and it’s essential for your health, but your body can’t make it so you must get the small amounts of manganese you need from your diet.

Manganese is a coenzyme; in other words, a helper enzyme involved in making proteins. In this case, bone and connective tissue, which together mean your joints. If you’re protein deficient, you may have knee pain, shoulder pain, or problems with your ligaments, for example.

Let’s say your mother was deficient in manganese when she was carrying you. You could end up with flat feet, or problems with your skeletal structure. You could also have muscle spasms, inflammation (because manganese is involved with very powerful antioxidants), or a build-up of ammonia.

Manganese is part of your defense mechanism to protect you against damage from free radicals. As a side note, a bacteria called deinococcus radiodurans is the toughest bacteria on earth. It can withstand over 500,000 rads of ionizing radiation. Pretty amazing when you consider 100 rads can kill a person. They can also survive extreme cold and dehydration. They use manganese to protect against free radicals.

Foods that are high in manganese include:

● Cloves
● Pecans
● Grains (of course, I don’t recommend these)
● Tea (consume in small amounts since their tannins block manganese)
● Spinach (though it ends up not being a good source because of its oxalates)
● Pumpkin seeds
● Kale
● Squash
● Sea kelp

You can see why I recommend you eat a varied diet rather than just the same thing every day. But an important point about manganese and other trace minerals is not to consume large amounts of them for a long period of time because too much can be very toxic.
