Manganese is an essential micronutrient for healthy animals
Manganese is one of the nine essential micronutrients (trace minerals) needed for healthy animals. It is a required component of many enzyme systems, including carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism. Because animals store very little manganese in their bodies, their diet must contain enough to meet daily requirements. Manganese helps animals synthesize fatty acids and cholesterol and is required for bone strength and reproductive health. Animals require it to efficiently utilize biotin, vitamin B1, and vitamin C.
