Re: How much manganese can I take for copper overload?

Have you tried molybdenum yet? That is useful for lowering copper and

one does not need to be cautious with it.

In Hair Test Interpretation, Andy states that 5-15 mg manganese per

day will usually resolve a deficiency if you have one.

Some sources do state that manganese helps to reduce copper. Andy

does not support this idea as far as I know. However, it is possible

to be deficient in manganese. I think it's worth a try. If you

don't notice any benefits after a month or two, I would drop it.

If you have any problems, then I would say drop it immediately.
