Hello,
The article you mention (
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/323097.php?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_country=CA&utm_hcp=no&utm_campaign=MNT%20Weekly%20%28non-HCP%20non-US%29%20-%20OLD%20STYLE%202018-09-19&utm_term=MNT%20Weekly%20News%20%28non-HCP%20non-US%29
) uses data generated from a study in mice. Yet, unfortunately, it is too early to recommend the use of mannose in weight control.
For example, in the study, mice older than 8 weeks showed no benefit from the use of mannose, whereas younger mice did. How this will translate to humans is yet to be determined.
Good day,
Alexandre Chagnon, Pharm.
