It is part of some plant polysaccharides, such as mannan and glucomannan, and of some animal glycoproteins. It is not an essential nutrient as it is produced in the body from glucose. It is used to synthesize glycoproteins and produce energy. Mannose is used as a nutritional supplement and, with a lack of conclusive evidence, to prevent recurrent urinary tract infections.
