Why Mannatech?
Why Mannatech
Our Intelligent SupplementationSM 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.

Social Entrepreneurship
"Social entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems."
Finding innovative new solutions to the world’s biggest problems is quietly becoming the most powerful business model of the 21st Century. Tackling global issues like poverty, malnutrition, clean air and water, and health care are foundational to an exciting new business strategy for changing the world called, social entrepreneurship.
WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING
The Power of Unreasonable People
Harvard Business School • John Elkington & Pamela Hartigan
“It is time to start investing in, partnering with, and learning from these world-shaping change agents. You will not only contribute to the social revolutions they’re fueling, but also position your organization to thrive in the new business landscape they are helping to define.”
How to Change the World
David Bornstein
“[We] look at social entrepreneurs… as transformative forces: people with new ideas to address major problems who are relentless in the pursuit of their visions, people who simply will not take ‘no’ for an answer, who will not give up until they have spread their ideas as far as they possibly can.”
THE SOLUTION
Innovation—Real Food Technology® Solutions
Sam Caster Discusses The SolutionA key to the ultimate success of social entrepreneurship is the creation of an innovative new technology for solving an existing global problem. As the lack of proper nutrition has become epidemic in both industrialized and developing countries, the supplementation of essential nutrients has become a critical strategy for protecting health.
Until recently, synthetically made vitamins and inorganic minerals have provided the only source for standardized levels of these essential nutrients. Synthetic vitamins are made from coal tar or petroleum; and due to their low cost they are the primary choice of manufacturers of both nutritional supplements and enriched foods. Inorganic minerals, either mined or by-products of a chemical process, also provide an inexpensive source for supplementation, but do not have the solubility of minerals found in food.
Fruits and vegetables make vitamins in their tissues and then bond them to various minerals, fats, polysaccharides, amino acids and other vital Phytochemicals to create what is called a food matrix. Minerals become more soluble in food and this matrix of nutrients provides the co-factors required by the body for the proper absorption and utilization of all essential nutrients. It has become clear that the human body was designed to obtain its nutritional requirements from food.
As a result, food based health products, such as “super” juices, have proliferated the market in recent years. On the surface they look like a good alternative to synthetically made supplements. Unfortunately, when scientifically analyzed, super juices have been shown to contain less than one percent of the recommended daily requirement of the most vitamins and minerals. This has left consumers the poor choice of standardized but synthetically made supplements, or non-standardized and nutritionally deficient food-based supplements. Major relief organizations around the world have had almost no alternative to inexpensive synthetic supplements or synthetically enriched grain-based cereals.
A Healthy Dose of RealityMannatech, Incorporated, the pioneers of Real Food Technology® Solutions has now developed a preferable new option to this challenge.
In 2007 Mannatech filed international patents on the nutrition industry’s first supplement to provide standardized and nutritionally effective levels of natural and plant-sourced vitamins, minerals and Phytochemicals, called PhytoMatrix®. To address the needs of the world’s most vulnerable children, Mannatech utilized this same patented technology to specially formulate PhytoBlend™ powder, a product made available exclusively to not-for-profit organizations fighting malnutrition in developing countries around the world.
PhytoBlend™ Powder
Based on Real Food Technology® solutions, PhytoBlend™ powder can help provide children with their daily nutritional needs and, most importantly, help combat the devastating effects of malnutrition. Since PhytoBlend™ powder is synthetic free and contains nutrients from natural plant sources, children can now get standardized and nutritionally effective amounts of vitamins and minerals from Real Food Technology® solutions in a way that has never been possible before. Its powder form makes it flexible in use, providing a practical and easy way to make any meal nutritious. The ready-to-use powder complex can be added to virtually any meal, and with a serving size of 0.75 grams (0.23 teaspoons), children will hardly realize they are eating a nutritious meal. Now, every child can get the nutrient support they deserve.
NOW THIS IS THE SORT OF SOCIALLY AWARE COMPANY I WANT TO BE AFFILIATED WITH.

SUGARMUMS - WORK WITH A COMPANY THAT CARES
In 11 years, we've provided more than 23 MILLION servings of nutrition and impacted more than 100,000 children in 83 countries:
MANNARELIEF
"Our mission is to bless orphans and children around the world with the love of God through nutritional support designed to improve the quality of life and health.
It all started with the simple act of giving. In 1998, founders Sam and Linda Caster donated to an orphanage organization based in Romania. When the directors of that organization thanked the Caster’s for their contribution, they expressed their growing concerns for the children in their care. Malnutrition was taking its ruthless toll on their lives. In desperation, the directors said “if you know anyone that can help us with this problem, please let us know”. With the world’s most advanced nutritional and wellness technology at their fingertips, Sam and Linda donated a one year supply of nutrient support. One year later, the directors came back wanting more and out of the direct need, MannaRelief was born. Eleven years later with thousands of people around the world joining together, we’re addressing the problem of malnutrition for children everywhere."
Do you want to work for yourself, with a company that is socially aware?

SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP
Social Entrepreneurship
"Social entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems."
Finding innovative new solutions to the world’s biggest problems is quietly becoming the most powerful business model of the 21st Century. Tackling global issues like poverty, malnutrition, clean air and water, and health care are foundational to an exciting new business strategy for changing the world called, social entrepreneurship.
Keys to a Successful Social Entrepreneur Movement
1. Take On the World’s Biggest Problems
Social entrepreneurs are relentless in their efforts to change what’s wrong in the world. The bigger the problem, the more motivated they become. However, the bigger the problem, the more conflict their movements face from those who profit from status quo.
2. Create Innovative and Scalable Entrepreneurial Solutions
Innovation provides the best solutions to global problems. The business strategy, created to proliferate these solutions into society, must be easily duplicated and scalable for fast growth in order to achieve global impact as quickly as possible.
3. Experiment with New Models
Give a man a fish; that’s good. Teach a man to fish; that’s even better. Change the fishing industry; now you’ve really done something.
Social entrepreneurs are not afraid to reinvent the wheel if it will yield better results for their cause.
4. Tap into the Passion that the Public Feels for Your Cause
Victor Hugo said, “There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come.” On the other hand, connecting a powerful idea to a cause that the world can get passionate about, can create an army of world-changers motivated to conquer what appear to be unsolvable problems.
5. Find Creative New Ways to Compensate Those Who are Willing to Participate
The traditional business model pays wages for work done. There may be no purpose or passion connected with the activity. It’s simply a way to pay the bills. The traditional not-for-profit organizations are generally strong of passion, but typically don’t have the budgets to pay their employees market wages, and must rely heavily on volunteers to achieve their goals.
Social entrepreneurial organizations create a hybrid blend of the best of these two models. They seek to financially compensate everyone who feels the passion for their cause in direct proportion to their contribution. The key to this strategy lies in its ability to appropriately compensate both the career-minded social entrepreneur as well as the millions of individuals in the world
The Problem
Lack of Proper Nutrition is the Number One Health Risk in the World
Developing Countries
Children in developing countries receive
too little of the right kind of food.
1/3 to 1/2 of all
childhood deaths in the
world are linked to
malnutrition.
Industrialized Countries
Children in industrialized countries receive
too much of the wrong kind of food.
