How To Get The Manganese That Isn't In The ThinkPharm Formula
As we mentioned in our article about why we don’t put manganese in our supplement, manganese deficiency has never been proven to occur in humans. Even intentionally trying to produce deficiency with an intake of 0.74mg failed to produce symptoms. Some studies suggest, however, that an intake of 3.5mg may be best. How can we get this?
Pretty easily! Most people consume between 2.5-5 mg already, but if you really want to know a few foods high in manganese then here’s some data taken from the nutrient search tool on nutritiondata.self.com.
Ground ginger (one 5 gram tablespoon) = 1.4mg
Teff (uncooked) (38 grams) = 3.5mg
Pine nuts (28 grams) = 2.5mg
Oat Bran (50 grams) = 2.8mg
Dark Rye flour (37 grams) = 2.5mg
Hazelnuts (50 grams) = 3.1mg
Mussels (blue, cooked, moist heat) (42 grams) = 2.9mg
Blueberries (wild, frozen) (100 grams) = 2.9mg
