Article Synopsis
  • Manganism is a neurological disorder linked to manganese chloride buildup in the brain, leading to symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease.
  • This study investigates the neuroprotective effects of two natural compounds, micronized zeolite clinoptilolite (ZC) and punicalagin (PUN), in male rats exposed to manganese chloride.
  • Results showed that ZC and PUN improved brain chemistry, reduced inflammation, and enhanced motor coordination, indicating their potential to alleviate Parkinson's-like symptoms in this experimental model.
