What it is

Manganese gluconate is a mineral supplement. It is formed when manganese, an essential trace mineral found naturally in the environment, is combined with gluconic acid, which is derived from glucose. It is typically produced through a chemical reaction.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add manganese gluconate to foods and beverages as a source of manganese, an essential nutrient. It is commonly found in nutritional supplements, meal replacement products, and energy drinks where added vitamins and minerals are desired.

Health notes

In the US, manganese gluconate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a nutrient supplement. Manganese is essential for various bodily functions, including bone formation and metabolism. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated manganese gluconate. Evidence on the health effects of manganese at typical dietary intakes is generally reassuring, though excessive intake can lead to adverse effects.

Allergen info

Manganese gluconate is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
