What Is Manganese?
Manganese is a naturally occurring element found in food and drinking water. Excess exposure is associated with harm to the brain and nervous system, with children's attention, memory, and intellectual capacity of particular concern.
This is exact-analyte context. It does not establish that manganese is present at a property or that a ZIP-associated record represents exposure.
Who May Need Closer Review?
The governed EWG release identifies these household groups for closer manganese review. The classification does not lower or multiply the cited reference and does not determine anyone's exposure.
Confirm the serving utility and use a certified property sample before making a health, exposure, or treatment decision.
