Highest Manganese Foods

Foods ranked by manganese per 100 g from USDA FoodData Central.

Manganese acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in bone formation, carbohydrate and cholesterol metabolism, and the body's antioxidant defences. Requirements are small and most varied diets meet them comfortably, with whole grains, nuts, and leafy vegetables contributing the majority. Deficiency is rare enough in humans that it is mainly documented in experimental settings.
