The Foods That Bring Magnesium to an Ordinary Meal
Health & Nutrition
Magnesium occurs in a range of foods you can use in everyday meals. The NIH lists legumes, nuts, seeds, whole grains and leafy greens among its sources.
For variety, try beans in a bowl, add seeds to oatmeal, or serve leafy greens with dinner. A regular mix of ingredients can be more practical than looking for one food to supply everything.
If you have a diagnosed deficiency or are considering a supplement, ask a clinician which approach fits your situation. Supplement needs and possible interactions depend on individual circumstances.
