Amazing!

A study made on MX3 Capsule done in America and published in the Journal of Aging Resarch and Clinical Practice. It was concluded that MX3 Capsule helps improve mobility together with a good and healthy diet

could u send some info to whoisbhauji at gmail dot com?

Shauna Young, a naturopath in Colorado, is working wonders by putting austic children and others with neurological illness on a manganese lowering protocol.

LOL I just read the article and was going to comment that far too much emphasis was put on manganese excess, when I see that Alethea already brilliantly summarized the current state of most people’s manganese status! The only thing I’ll add to her comment is that if anyone wants more information on the impact Glyphosate has on manganese, check out the research Dr. Stephanie Seneff from MIT has done on the topic!

High arginine increases viral activity (e.g. Epstein-Barr), and viruses damage thiamine chemistry. Low thiamine activity leads to reduced Krebs/energy cycle (NOTHING can happen without TPP – thiamine pyrophosphate, the active form of thiamine), as well as lactic acidosis and hypokalemic hypersensitivity — all factors, I believe in ME/CFS (chronic fatigue). This could be one of the ways B1 (thiamine) and manganese support each other in the body.

Glyphosate makes people manganese-deficient. In addition, many with chronic illness suffer (unknowingly or knowingly) from B1 deficiency, and B1 metabolism requires manganese. In fact, a lot of my chronic fatigue problems were related to a backlog of by-products of oxidative metabolism in the mitochondria, which put back-pressure on Krebs/energy cycle. What helped fix it? Manganese, which powers MnSOD. (Eric also writes very knowledgeably about MnSOD and chronic fatigue over at HOW I RECOVERED). On top of that, many with hereditary hemochromatosis genes (HFE) will unknowingly store iron — at a cost to manganese. Lastly, copper toxicity/dysregulation — also an epidemic among the chronically ill — and its attendant iron overload — the #1 favorite topic of Morley Robbins — will deplete manganese. In fact, B1 (remember B1 and manganese share a special synergy) will chelate iron. Did I say lastly already? I was premature. LASTLY, Lyme and other infections can leave people very seriously manganese depleted. The greater danger these days, by far — unless you are a miner or a welder — is manganese DEFICIENCY, not toxicity. Everyone should be getting an RBC manganese test with routine blood work (RBC is the only meaningful metric; serum is meaningless). And let’s not confuse manganese “excess” with manganese simply showing up in higher amounts in one place because it’s not getting where it needs to go somewhere else. That’s not toxicity, it’s disrupted transport or damaged manganese chemistry — from genetics, iron overload, Glyphosate, etc. And it’s not just us! Our gut microbes need Mn, too. Pineapple (organic, needless to say) is a terrific source, but to be honest, I was so deficient that no amount of pineapple would have done the trick. I suspect manganese and B1 deficiency are far more common than we realize.
