			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dallas-based nutrition, wellness and skin care pioneer establishes its 17th operation internationally<br />
(COPPELL, Texas) Jan. 24, 2011 – Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX), a leading developer and provider of nutritional supplements and skin care products based on Real Food TechnologySM solutions, officially commences Mexico business operations on January 24 across all of Mexico.</p>
<p>“Mexico is one of the most important international market openings that Mannatech has ever undertaken, because Mexico is a hugely strategic market in its own right as well as a gateway to all Latin America,” said Randy Bancino, president of Mannatech’s international business. “Since 1994, our passion has been to support hard-working people looking to improve their lives through healthy living and building a business. We have found that the people of Mexico share our passion for changing people’s lives.”</p>
<p>Mannatech has distinguished itself in the emerging wellness and glyconutrient markets through the scientific development of its proprietary Ambrotose® complex. This technology holds more than 45 patents in 30 countries around the world. Many of Mannatech’s products, including Ambrotose, are based on Real Food TechnologySM solutions, which provide consumers with products that contain standardized levels of natural and plant-sourced nutrients.</p>
<p>“We have science as our foundation, and with a proven business model and products that will stand out in Mexico, I believe we will make a real difference in the lives of people willing to make a change,” said Sergio Medina, managing director of Mannatech’s Mexico operations. “There are more than 100 million people in Mexico, many of them looking to supplement their income and make a better quality of life for their families, and I believe Mannatech will help them discover that.”</p>
<p>According to the Direct Selling Association, Mexico is the sixth largest direct selling market in the world. Currently, more than two million people living in Mexico are involved with direct sales and are creating more than $3.5 billion in revenue.</p>
<p>Mannatech’s Mexico operations include offices and storefronts in both Guadalajara and Mexico City and a distribution center located in Monterrey. Individuals interested in Mannatech’s health and wellness products and business opportunity can learn more at mexicomannatech.com</p>

The announcement was made at <a href="http://www.usopen-karate.com/">ISKA’s 37<sup>th</sup> annual U.S. Open</a>, which featured more than 3,000 of the top martial artists from 40 participating countries and will be <strong>nationally televised on ESPN2 tomorrow, July 23,</strong> <strong>at</strong> <strong>9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT</strong>.</p>
<p>“For the first  time in the 25-year history of ISKA, we are happy to announce our  partnership with Mannatech and share it with our more than 28,000 studio  owners,” said <strong>Cory Schafer, president of ISKA.</strong></p>
<p>“Third party  certification by reputable organizations means Mannatech products have  achieved a very rare level of purity, safety and trust,” said <a href="http://us.mannatech.com/executive-leadership.html"><strong>Robert A. Sinnott, Ph.D., MNS, co-CEO and chief science officer of Mannatech</strong></a><strong>. </strong>“Many  of our products are already certified Kosher and certified for GMP  compliance by NSF International, but we believe having products  certified by the ISKA governing body confirms the benefits our  supplements have for elite athletes and others who are very particular  about what they put into their bodies.”</p>
<p>The partnership will allow various Mannatech products to carry the ‘<strong>ISKA Certified for Elite Athletes’</strong> seal, as well as a proven business-building opportunity for all studio owners represented by ISKA.</p>
<p>Present at the U.S. Open in Orlando were elite martial arts practitioners and <a href="http://www.teammannatech.com/">Team Mannatech</a><sup>SM</sup> athletes <a href="http://www.teamchiptkd.com/index.html"><strong>Chip Townsend</strong></a> and <a href="http://www.teamchiptkd.com/InstructorBEN.html"><strong>Ben Parra</strong></a><a href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/mannatech-and-iska-forge-exclusive-partnership-at-37th-annual-us-open/#_ftn1">[1]</a> who each set world records.</p>
<p>“Because of the  variety of products offered in stores today, students often get confused  with what nutritional supplements to take,” said Townsend. “This  partnership will take the guesswork out of the purchase because  Mannatech products are developed with real food technology<sup> </sup>solutions and without any banned substances.”</p>
<p>Replay dates of the ISKA U.S. Open will air on ESPN2, August 19 and 22 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(COPPELL, Texas) January 8, 2010 &#8211; <a href="http://www.mannatech.com" target="_blank">Mannatech, Incorporated</a> (NASDAQ: MTEX &#8211; News), a global pioneer in the development of high-quality health, weight and fitness, and skin care solutions based on nutritional science, announced the results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that shows healthy middle-aged adults who took one teaspoon of Ambrotose<sup>®</sup> complex<sup>1</sup> twice daily performed significantly better on memory tasks and were overall more positive in their mood.<sup>2 </sup>*</p>
<p>Drs. Talitha Best and Eva Kemps of Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, and Dr. Janet Bryan of the University of South Australia in Adelaide, Australia, published their findings of the 12-week study in the January 2010 issue of <a href="http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content%7Edb=all%7Econtent=a917924800">Developmental Neuropsychology</a><em>, </em>a peer-reviewed scientific journal.</p>
<p>“This rigorous double-blind, placebo-controlled study confirms important biological effects of Mannatech’s flagship and proprietary product, Ambrotose complex,” said <a href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/executive-bios/">Dr. Robert A. Sinnott</a>, MNS, PhD, co-chief executive officer and chief science officer of Mannatech. “The significantly better performance on memory tasks and positive effects on mood experienced by the study participants who consumed Ambrotose complex is congruent with beneficial effects on brain functions.”*</p>
<p>The abstract of the study states that: “Before and after this supplementation period, participants completed alternate forms of standardized tests of cognition and self-report measures of well-being. Significant beneficial and longer-term effects of saccharide supplementation were found for memory performance and indicators of well-being. The potential for these nutrients to optimize cognitive function and well-being in older adults warrants on-going investigation.”<sup>2</sup> *</p>
<p>“Right now, commercial development of compounds to enhance cognitive functioning is one of the hottest areas of biomedical research,” Sinnott continued. “While most research focuses around synthetic compounds, Mannatech’s Ambrotose complex is comprised of ingredients that are isolated and purified from renewable natural sources, primarily plants. Mannatech has pioneered the field of nutritional glycobiology since 1996, and we will continue to be a leader in the future.”</p>
<p>Mannatech currently holds more than 45 patents in 30 countries for the technology related to Ambrotose complex.</p>
<p>In addition, many of Mannatech’s products are based on <a href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/on-the-cutting-edge/">Real Food TechnologySM</a> solutions, which provide consumers with products that contain standardized levels of natural and plant-sourced nutrients at nutritionally effective levels. Food-sourced ingredients are chosen from those scientifically proven to most benefit the human body. Mannatech offers the best alternative to synthetic vitamin and mineral products and so-called “super-juice” products.</p>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>(COPPELL, Texas) April 20, 2010 -</strong> <a href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/">Mannatech, Incorporated</a> (NASDAQ: <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/q;_ylt=Ar5xsprwudWVj1UjGVe.Uvjjba9_;_ylu=X3oDMTB2Ym5haHU4BHBvcwMxBHNlYwNuZXdzQXJ0U3RhcnQEc2xrA210ZXg-?s=mtex&amp;d=t">MTEX</a> &#8211; <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/q/h;_ylt=Au.JXtqMMfIz5ScyZF0TUVHjba9_;_ylu=X3oDMTB2MWIxcnJxBHBvcwMyBHNlYwNuZXdzQXJ0U3RhcnQEc2xrA25ld3M-?s=mtex">News</a>), a global pioneer in the development of high-quality health, weight and fitness, and skin care solutions based on <a onclick="window.open('http://www.mannatechscience.org/','','');return false;" href="http://www.mannatechscience.org/">nutritional science</a>, announced the results of an independent study that demonstrated its proprietary <a onclick="window.open('http://mannatechscience.org/home/products/ambrotose','','');return false;" href="http://mannatechscience.org/home/products/ambrotose">Ambrotose<sup>®</sup> complex</a> and <a onclick="window.open('http://mannatechscience.org/home/products/advanced-ambrotose-powder','','');return false;" href="http://mannatechscience.org/home/products/advanced-ambrotose-powder">Advanced Ambrotose<sup>®</sup> powder</a> exerted prebiotic effects.* † The study was conducted by scientists at <a onclick="window.open('http://www.ugent.be/','','');return false;" href="http://www.ugent.be/">Ghent University</a> and <a onclick="window.open('http://www.prodigest.eu/en/home','','');return false;" href="http://www.prodigest.eu/en/home">ProDigest</a>, a leading company in gastrointestinal (GI) research.</p>
<p>The study, conducted at a top European research institute in Belgium, investigated the effects of Ambrotose complex and Advanced Ambrotose powder on the structure, composition and metabolism of the human GI tract using state-of-the-art human GI tract simulations and sophisticated microbiological analyses.</p>
<p>Its findings determined both Ambrotose complex and Advanced Ambrotose powder exhibited good selective fermentability throughout the entire colon, positive and selective bifidogenic effects and also demonstrated the possibility of enhancing species belonging to Bacteroidetes.</p>
<p>“We have been interested in the effects of Ambrotose products on GI health-a very hot area of scientific research-for many years,” said <a onclick="window.open('http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/executive-bios/','','');return false;" href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/executive-bios/">Mannatech’s Co-CEO and Chief Science Officer, Robert A. Sinnott, MNS, Ph.D.</a> “A preliminary study published in 2007 showed that these products function as prebiotics, but the human gut is incredibly complex and difficult to study. To learn more, we chose to rely on the expertise of researchers on the forefront of human GI research. The work done by Dr. Marzorati and his team suggests that Ambrotose products support GI health throughout the entire colon; most prebiotics are thought to only exert such effects in the first portion of the colon.”</p>
<p>The study’s findings were published in the peer‐reviewed <em><a onclick="window.open('http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/505514/description#description','','');return false;" href="http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/505514/description#description">International Journal of Food Microbiology</a> </em>and indexed on <a onclick="window.open('http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20362351','','');return false;" href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20362351">PubMed</a><em> </em>by Drs. Massimo Marzorati and Sam Possemiers (U. of Ghent and ProDigest), A. Verhelst (ProDigest), Profs. Willy Verstraete and T. Van de Wiele (U. of Ghent) and Drs. Robert Sinnott and Gabriela Luta (Mannatech, Incorporated).[1]</p>
<p>“We are intensely interested in employing state-of-the-art technology to explore the effects of our Ambrotose products,” said Sinnott. “This study provides important information about the activities of these products in the human GI tract.”</p>
<p>Currently, Mannatech holds more than 45 patents in 30 countries for the technology related to Ambrotose complex.</p>
<p>In addition, many of Mannatech’s products are based on <a href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/on-the-cutting-edge/">Real Food Technology</a><sup>SM</sup> solutions, which provide consumers with products that contain standardized levels of natural and plant-sourced nutrients. Food-sourced ingredients are chosen from those scientifically proven to most benefit the human body. Mannatech offers the best alternative to synthetic vitamin and mineral products and so-called “super-juice” products.</p>

<p>“Only Mannatech offers the dynamic combination of <em>real</em> scientifically validated products along with an award-winning compensation plan, and we are excited to partner with our independent sales Associates to bring the Mannatech opportunity to Mexico,” said <a onclick="window.open('http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/executive-bios/','','');return false;" href="http://www.allaboutmannatech.com/about-us/executive-bios/">Randy Bancino, president of Mannatech’s global business operations and expansion</a>. “Our decision to enter Mexico is a strategic move and serves as a gateway to the Latin American market.”</p>
<p>According to the <a onclick="window.open('http://www.dsa.org/','','');return false;" href="http://www.dsa.org/">Direct Selling Association</a>, Mexico &#8211; and its population of 110 million people &#8211; is the sixth-largest direct selling market in the world.

<p>“Since our founding in 1994, our philosophy has been to support people looking to change their lives through a personal commitment to healthy living and dedication to building a business.
