Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace mineral that is
concentrated primarily in the bone, liver, pancreas, and brain. This mineral is
a component of several enzymes: (1) Mn-superoxide dismutase which prevents
tissue damage due to lipid (fat) oxidation; (2) pyruvate carboxylase which helps
break down carbohydrates; and (3) arginase which is important for nitric oxide
synthesis and the formation of urea in the urine. Manganese also activates
numerous enzymes, particularly glycosyltransferases which are involved with the
formation of cartilage in bone and skin.
IMPORTANCE: An antioxidant nutrient; important in the blood breakdown
of amino acids and the production of energy; necessary for the metabolism of
Vitamin B-1 & Vitamin E; Activates various enzymes which are important for
proper digestion & utilization of foods; is a catalyst in the breakdown of fats
& cholesterol; helps nourish the nerves and brain; necessary for normal skeletal
