MINERALS  > Molybdenum

What are the benefits?

Molybdenum is required in extremely small amounts for the proper function of certain enzyme-dependent processes, including the metabolism of iron. It helps maintain normal cell function and is a component of an enzyme used in the breakdown of waste products for excretion in the urine.
 
What are the natural food sources?

Foods containing molybdenum include milk, dairy products, beans, cereal grains, legumes, peas and dark leafy vegetables.
 
How much do you need?

The recommended daily allowance of molybdenum is not defined, but most adults consume between 120 and 140 mcg per day.
 
Are you likely to be deficient?

Deficiency of molybdenum may lead to impotence in older males, or mouth and gum disorders.
 
Are you taking too much?


Very high doses may lead to the development of gout and impaired copper bio availability.
 
Are there any interactions?

Heat and moisture effect the action of supplemental molybdenum. High doses of sulphur may decrease molybdenum levels.
