MARKHAM, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Mannatech^®, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX), a global health and wellness company committed to transforming lives to make a better world, recently launched its most legendary ingredient, Manapol^® powder, to its Canadian market. Manapol is the highest quality aloe vera gel extract in the world.

Manapol powder is a pure, premium, 100 percent aloe vera gel extract that is abundant in acetylated, mannose-rich polysaccharides, or acemannans. The acemannans in Manapol powder have a guaranteed molecular weight of more than one million Daltons¹, testing the highest of any other aloe gel extract. As the most cutting-edge Glyconutritional product available, Manapol powder supports cellular communication and may provide gastrointestinal benefits.

“We’ve reached an exciting milestone by providing our most potent ingredient as a stand-alone product to our Canadian market,” said Mannatech’s Regional President of EMEAA and the Americas, Christopher Simons. “Manapol is our core technology at Mannatech and something that the Canadian market has been especially passionate about and supportive of for years. I know they can’t wait to share the world’s highest quality aloe vera product with everyone around them.”

For more than 20 years, Manapol powder has been an essential ingredient in other Mannatech products. Mannatech’s Advanced Ambrotose^® product and Ambrotose^® complex are among the company’s top-selling products containing the aloe gel extract, and are known for their immune and gastrointestinal benefits.
