# Ambrotose® — The Multi-Glycan Standard > Intelligent immune support powered by multi-glycans. Ambrotose® powder is Mannatech's multi-glycan supplement, built to supply a blend of glycans from four plant sources.* - Site: https://aloe.mannatech.com/ - Publisher: Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX) - Headquarters: 1410 Lakeside Parkway, Suite 200, Flower Mound, TX 75028, USA Ambrotose® is not a vitamin. It supplies glycans — complex plant saccharides involved in immune-support signaling and microbiome health — from four plant sources, with Manapol® powder (standardized aloe vera extract) at the center. ## The four glycan sources (identical in both formulas) - Aloe vera extract — Manapol® powder. Primarily mannose, plus galacturonic acid. Standardized, stabilized, grown in Costa Rica and hand harvested. Acemannan is defined at 1–2 million Daltons. - AmbroGuard® arabinogalactan powder — purified from larch wood. A dietary fiber fermented by colonic bacteria, supporting beneficial bacteria including bifidobacteria and L. plantarum.* - Gum tragacanth — prebiotic fiber from dried sap. Contributes glyconutrients, notably fucose, and helps support the immune system and cell-to-cell communication.* - Glucosamine hydrochloride — plant-sourced amino sugar used as a precursor to other saccharides for cellular support, communication, and immune function.* Plant-fermented and vegan. The sources overlap on purpose. These glycans also have different structures, and different structures can provide different functions. No single plant supplies the full range. ## Two formulas Both formulas are built on the same four sources and carry the same approved benefit claims. Ambrotose LIFE® powder simply adds three more ingredients alongside those four. - Ambrotose® Complex powder — the four glycan sources and nothing else. Made for more than thirty years; the formula the Ambrotose clinical trials were run on directly. Serving: 1 rounded 2 g scoop twice daily (4 g/day). Shop: https://usa.mannatech.com/shop/ambrotose-complex-powder - Ambrotose LIFE® powder — the same four sources, plus wakame extract, modified citrus pectin, and sodium alginate. Serving: 1 level 1.67 g scoop twice daily (3.34 g/day).

Gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, kosher, free from dairy and preservatives. ## Manapol® powder Manapol® powder is the standardized, stabilized aloe vera extract at the center of every Ambrotose® formula, and is also sold on its own. Independent CCRC / University of Georgia testing found ≥43% of the powder in the 1–2 million Dalton acemannan range. - Landing: https://aloe.mannatech.com/manapol/llms.txt - Science / substantiation: https://aloe.mannatech.com/manapol/science/llms.txt - Shop: https://usa.mannatech.com/shop/manapol ## Related pages - Homepage: https://aloe.mannatech.com/ - Complex vs LIFE comparison: https://aloe.mannatech.com/ambrotose/ - Manapol® powder: https://aloe.mannatech.com/manapol/ - Manapol science: https://aloe.mannatech.com/manapol/science/ *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
