"Manganese is needed for the formation of healthy skin, nerves, bones and cartilage. It also works in conjunction with zinc and copper to activate an antioxidant named superoxide dismutase, which prevents free radicals from destroying cell organs. Manganese plays an important role in the synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids, and is essential for the utilization of choline, thiamin, biotin, and vitamins C and E. It helps activate enzymes that regulate blood sugar, energy metabolism and function of the thyroid gland. Manganese helps our body break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.
