Manganese is an essential trace mineral and a cofactor for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulphate), and as such is important for musculoskeletal health.
Manganese also contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, maintenance of normal bones as well as normal functioning of connective tissue and protection of cells from oxidative stress.
This mineral is also required for one type of superoxide dismutase (SOD). Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), an enzyme located in mitochondria, is the key enzyme that protects the energy-generating mitochondria from oxidative damage.
Minerals are essential for life, not just yours and mine but all life, including all plants, animals, and even insects. Each of the macro minerals sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, as well as the trace minerals iron, zinc. copper, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and iodine must be consumed in the diet for optimum health.
Body Bio Minerals are unique, highly-absorbable minerals. Their low dose solutions do not mean they have reduced potency, rather they have been designed to work specifically with the use of the testing process to provide an accurate and individualised programme of mineral restoration.
It is well known that modern farming techniques deplete many of the minerals in the soil as well as the nutritional content of our food. The absence of a steady food-derived supply of minerals subtly undermines our health. This may be difficult to quantify but we certainly are aware of the changes in the character of the food we buy.
BodyBio has developed a group of 8 Essential Liquid Minerals in a very low concentration which is close to homeopathic. This mild concentration of each mineral challenges the taste buds to search out the answer we are asking. First, is there something there other than water. If so, is it pleasant, is it harsh? Each of us has the ability to test each mineral by itself, to determine desirability at that moment in time. Important, because change and adjustment are part of the fabric of your life and health.
