I've Mickey Moused with this heading a bit in an effort to fool the software into sending my message where I want it to go, instead of where the *#@^()!)) software wanted to send it (In lieu of my SLEEPING) tonite) READ ON: WATCH FOR MANGANESE! ; If you're taking supplements for joint or muscle pain, check the label. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) reports that they are receiving reports stating too many contain high levels of manganese. This can cause symptoms similar to Parkinson's Disease according to the IOM. The IOM your manganese intake from food, water and other supplements shouldn't exceed 11 mg. per day.
