Why Mannatech You Ask?

Why Mannatech

Our Intelligent Supplementation^SM philosophy

Our researchers and scientists ask the question: What does a body need for optimal health?
Then we search the world for the best ingredients. Our goal is making products that will help maintain optimal health at the cellular level, thus improving your quality of life.

The Science of Wellness

Pollutants, questionable farming practices, stress - these factors increasingly contribute to a growing healthcare crisis. Around the world people from different cultures, backgrounds and walks of life often face the same issues - a decreasing quality of life and wellness. But there still is time to help guard yourself against these dangers.
Mannatech has championed revolutionary discoveries designed to help boost your body's ability to stay healthy. Inspired by aloe vera saccharide research and the exploding field of glycobiology, Mannatech developed the first glyconutritional dietary supplement, Ambrotose® complex, in 1996.
The aloe vera research showed that ingestion of a saccharide present in aloe vera gel could positively impact the immune system. The glycobiology studies showed that sugars attached to proteins on cells-glycoproteins-profoundly affect human function, including immune system function and cell-cell-recognition. Further studies went on to show that oral ingestion of certain sugars could impact glycoprotein synthesis. Polysaccharide research, particularly the interaction of these molecules with human physiology, is currently an area of intense scientific focus. Undoubtedly more understanding will be generated in the years and decades to come.
Mannatech's glyconutrient products apply concepts from the rapidly emerging field of glycobiology with biologically-active polysaccharide technologies. Ambrotose® complex is a blend of plant saccharides, sources of sugars designed to support glycoprotein synthesis and immune system function.
You may not be receiving these beneficial saccharides in the right amounts from the food you eat. That's where Mannatech offers hope. Mannatech leads the industry in glyconutrient technology around the world and strives to offer better solutions for global health.


Breakthrough Technology
Mannatech products are at the cutting edge of nutritional science. They are designed to offer unique capabilities based on proprietary technologies. The breakthrough innovation found in many Mannatech products is the technology related to our Ambrotose® complex, which is designed to provide the supplemental glyconutrients (the scientific word for "carbohydrates" or "sugars" generally missing from our diet but necessary for optimal health in humans.
To consumers, the basic building blocks of nutrients are well known: essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. What Mannatech has discovered is a brand new category of important nutrients: glyconutrients. Following our initial breakthrough discovery, Mannatech filed patents across the globe. Mannatech has now been issued patents in 30 countries, including the United States. Securing its position of leadership, Mannatech dedicates approximately 30 employees to its science department, and continues to develop new technologies, review research, and conduct studies.

Mannatech's Science team is committed to finding convenient, effective supplements.

Commitment to Quality
Mannatech is proud to serve as the "gold standard" in the industry.

Quality Compliance

Having quality products is the keystone of a quality company.
That's why we take every measure necessary to ensure our products meet the gold standard of quality for our industry.

Depend on Mannatech Products

Setting the highest standards for every aspect of product quality is a continuing process at Mannatech-all the time and every time. When it comes to product quality and value, we are proud of our achievements.
Consistently meeting or exceeding customer product expectations is among Mannatech's foremost goals. While we continually strive to keep up with the latest technological capabilities, we will never compromise our quality standards. At Mannatech, the term "good enough" means meeting those standards at the 100-percent level.
We have a comprehensive quality system based on Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs). We maintain strict control over every product as it passes through all phases of manufacturing, packaging and distribution.
Mannatech's Quality Assurance process encompasses biologists, chemists and technicians, all of whom receive frequent training to update their knowledge. All actions involving product lots are fully documented, and no product ever leaves Distribution until it has been thoroughly checked and rechecked
