so today we’re gonna talk about

manganese which is very different than

magnesium but you don’t really hear much

about manganese so let’s let’s talk

about what it is if they trace mineral

which means you need it it’s essential

but you need in very very small amounts

so manganese is a coenzyme what’s a

coenzyme it’s a helper compound involved

in certain types of proteins in this

case talking about bone which by the way

is mostly protein and connective tissue

itself so if you’re deficient in

mekinese you could have a problem with

bone and connective tissue which equal

the joints okay so you’re gonna have

knee pain a joint problems shoulder pain

problems with your ligaments so let’s

just say for example your mother when

she was carrying you was deficient in

manganese you could end up with problems

with connective tissue issues like flat

feet and problems with your skeletal

structure so you could end up with

skeletal deformation you can also have

muscle spasm inflammation primarily

because manganese is involved with very

powerful antioxidants in your body it’s

part of the defense mechanism to protect

you against free radicals and this is

why if you don’t have enough of it you

get a lot of inflammation it was a side

note there’s this micro bacterial dino

caucus radiodurans this is the toughest

bacteria on planet Earth

it can withstand over 500,000 rads of

ionizing radiation let me think about it

a hundred rads would kill a person these

microbes can withstand 500,000 rads and

they can survive the cold dehydration

they’re extremely tough and guess what

they use manganese to protect against

the free radicals that are generated and

lastly you can have a buildup of ammonia

okay which is kind of like the byproduct

of urea and protein metabolism okay what

foods are high in manganese clove is

number one P cons it’s in grains but

is a problem we don’t recommend grains

for a couple reasons number one they’re

not keto friendly number two they have

phytates especially if they’re whole

grains fight aids inhibit manganese they

bind it

same thing with zinc T has tannins which

blocked manganese so even though there

is manganese and T and a lot of other

herbs

there’s tannins in there it’s not going

to be absorbed spinach is high in this

thing called oxalates okay ox let’s bind

with manganese and calcium as well so

these three are not good sources pumpkin

seeds kale squash sea kelp are also good

sources this is just another reason why

you should have a diet that has a lot of

variety and not just eat one thing all

day because you want to get these trace

minerals one really important point

about manganese and other trace minerals

is that you don’t want to consume large

amounts of these for long periods of

time if you want to take some let’s say

for example you have a knee pain or

something you take it small amounts in a

blend of other trace minerals for short

periods of time okay because it can be

very toxic if you take too much alright
