Manganese for Hypermobility Harriet (Palmetto, FL) on 10/13/2026
During my days of young motherhood the hypermobility I have always experienced was greatly magnified. At that time I was attended by a manual chiropractor. He told me that all "they" had ever discovered that helped loose ligaments was manganese. Not magnesium, but manganese. He put me on 200 mg a day. I believe it did help somewhat. Everybody is different, and people are on different medications. It is an inexpensive experiment but check with your doctor to make sure it is ok for you body to try. Nowadays, the largest milligrams I've been able to find is 50 which means four pills a day.
