Pure Encapsulations Manganese (Aspartate/Citrate), 60 Capsules

Manganese is a trace mineral that we need a little bit of, and we dont even get that little bit very often. Ihad dislocated my shoulder in a fall and it was taking a long time to heal, I remembered reading of his long ago and taking it, it really helped recovery, my shoulder is now fine! This is without taking extra glucosamine. I am thinking all the glucosamine tablets ought to contain this in tiny amounts. Even the ones for dogs that have it- work much better for them. Really helped my 12 year old Rottweiler!

I feel the difference.

My favorite brand because of the small capsule size!

Amount Per Serving each vegetarian capsule contains: manganese 8 mg. (as manganese aspartate and 50% as manganese citrate) other ingredients: hypoallergenic plant fiber (cellulose), vegetarian capsule (cellulose, water) 1–3 capsules per day, in divided doses, with meals. The hypo-allergenic plant fiber Pure Encapsulations uses is a pharmaceutical grade alpha cellulose derived from purified specialty grades of wood pulp from Southern pine. Due to the nature of the raw material (wood pulp) and the manufacturing process, it does not contain alcohol, grain, corn, corn starch, sulfa, sulfites, animal products or gluten. In addition, it is free of pesiticides and heavy metals. There are no known allergens in this plant fiber. GMO Policy All ingredients in Pure Encapsulations products are non-GMO. High risk ingredients have been tested for the presence of genetically modified material. Our products do not contain wheat, gluten, nuts, egg, hydrogenated oils or MSG. Comprehensive Allergen SOP in place to prevent cross-contamination. Pure Encapsulations does not add coatings, binders, fillers, excipients, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners or colors. We do not use magnesium stearate in any of our products. All two-piece capsules are hypoallergenic and vegetarian. The capsules are made from Southern Pine, grown in the US. The pine is pesticide free. I use these for myself AND also to supplement my dogs raw food diet. I love that DON'T have magnesium stearates in them, but most of all, they WORK!!!

Honestly I can't tell if this product reduced my tendonitis symptoms or not. I will try a supplement for 3 months and then if I don't notice any difference I stop. A friend said it works very well for him which is why I purchased this. I trust this brand very much and try to buy supplements from them. So quality was not an issue. Just possibly the mineral.

Worth Every Penny. I started using Manganese by recommendation from my Function Neurologist to help rewire my brain and compliment all the effective work he's doing on me. So far my results have been: Increased cognition, increased mental performance, relaxed, calm, happy mood, and an energized brain throughout the whole day. Additional i noticed with my strength training an increase in performance, focus, strength, and being able to go hard every workout without muscle soreness or mental fatigue. I also have unexpectedly been able to sleep a lot better. I've only been using manganese for 2 weeks and taking 3 capsules a day; 1 capsule when I wake up, one after my workout, and one before i go to bed. Not what I was expecting from something so cheap, yet very rewarding. Everyone responds differently to supplements, so these results may not represent the norm and I would recommend doing research and talking to your functional Neurologist/doctor before starting manganese. All in all This product over exceeded my expectations and i'm purchasing more right now.

When I first started taking this supplement a few months ago, I was thrilled! I have Addison's Disease, a rare autoimmune disease. One of the side effects of the medication can be brain fog. The manganese made it so I could focus again! I was very happy until I started getting severe migraines twice a week after taking it for a few months. I'm going to give it a break for a few months, and then I'll try a different brand at a lower dose.

Best brand there is, period. Co$tly but if you need it this is the brand to buy. 73 yr-old athlete.
