The objective of the project was to determine the effect of several dietary constituents on manganese bioavailability of young adult humans. In a series of studies, human subjects were fed constant, laboratory-controlled diets in order to create a background against which several different dietary variations could be tested during treatment periods ranging from seven to 28 days. Manganese contents of food, feces, urine and whole blood were analyzed using a carbon rod attachment on an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. At low manganese intake levels, manganese bioavailability was apparently enhanced by ascorbic acid and by meat-containing diets but was possibly inhibited by iron, ascorbic acid (at high manganese intake levels) and by some dietary fiber sources. Recommended and/or projected changes i n the American diet i n d i r e c t l y may change intakes of s p e c i f i c nutrients or of a v a i l a b i l i t y of s p e c i f i c nutrients i n unpredicted or unpredictable ways. Dietary f i b e r , ascorbic acid and dietary f a t have a l l been shown to affect the a v a i l a b i l i t y of some nutrient minerals. Hence, i t i s not unreasonable to assume that a l t e r a t i o n s i n intake of these dietary constituents might have a direct effect on the b i o a v a i l a b i l i t y of manganese or might i n d i r e c t l y affect manganese b i o a v a i l a b i l i t y by, for example, a f f e c t i n g the a v a i l a b i l i t y of other minerals with which manganese competes for absorption s i t e s . Stress on reduced c a l o r i c intake to avoid obesity has received a p a r t i c u l a r l y attentive audience among American women. Ideally, dietary reduction i n c a l o r ies i s achieved v i a decreased consumption of empty-calorie foods which leaves consumption of vitamins and minerals unchanged. In "real world" s i t u a t i o n s , a decrease i n c a l o r i c consumption almost invariably leads to a decreased intake of a l l nutrients. Impact of dietary factors on manganese b i o a v a i l a b i l i t y and on manganese n u t r i t i o n a l status have not been extensively investigated.
