It has been known for years that manganese can harm lyme. Recently a paper reports that very low and overwhelmingly high manganese helps kill borrelia or Lyme disease.
Our current approach in treating humans is to test three levels of manganese
- WHOLE BLOOD MANGANESE LEVEL.
- RBC OR RED BLOOD CELL MANGANESE
- SERUM MAGNESIUM.
The first two are most important since only 5% of manganese is in your watery blood fluid.
With these three, a physician can suggest what a safe supplementation could be for you.
Signs of toxicity from work exposure, excess supplementation, etc come from Medicover Hospitals:
What Are the Symptoms of Manganese Toxicity?
- muscle stiffness

- difficulty walking
- irritability
- cognitive impairment
- headaches
- insomnia
- respiratory issues
- speech trouble
- Trouble swallowing
- weakness
- Others exist but Llme disease itself can cause these symptoms.
