Metabolic Typing: The Science of Oxidation Rates

Metabolic Typing allows us to begin to develop nutritional programs that are much more personalised, instead of treating every person as if they are the same. We find that it when it is used clinically, it is particularly useful in the treatment and prevention of chronic health conditions. This is because it transcends the symptom-based, one-sized fits all approach of modern allopathy and modern nutritional or herbal sciences.

Manganese (Mn)

Manganese is an essential trace element to all known living organisms. It is an activator of several metalloenzymes, including arginase, pyruvate carboxylase, glutamine synthetase, and one form of superoxide dismutase (SOD).

Manganese also functions as a non-specific enzyme activator and facilitates the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides (such as chondroitin sulfate), lipids and thyroxine. It helps prevent tissue damage caused by lipid oxidation and is an antioxidative transition metal. Manganese is part of the developmental process and the structure of the fragile ear bones.
