D-Mannose is an organic chemical compound from the sugar family. In nature, it occurs in the form of mannans, which are found, for example, in plants. However, it is not an ordinary sugar. In powder form, it is very soluble in water.

Due to its low-calorie and non-toxic properties, D-Mannose is widely used in the food, medical, cosmetic, and food additive industries. It is used as a starting material for the synthesis of immunostimulatory agents, vitamins, or D-Mannitol [1].

Interestingly, numerous studies are being conducted on the use of D-Mannose as a prophylaxis against urinary tract infections. A prophylactic effect of this sugar has now been observed in women with recurrent urinary tract infections. [2]

In summary, Zein Pharma D-Mannose 100 g is a dietary supplement in the form of a conveniently usable water-soluble powder. The product contains no artificial additives or allergens such as gluten, lactose, or soy. It can be used by vegans and vegetarians.
