Office of Dietary Supplements Fact Sheet
Magnesium is Good for the Heart and more: Ninety percent of Americans don't get the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of magnesium from their diet alone. Symptoms can include leg cramps, migraines, fatigue, loss of appetite, depression, nausea and vomiting or high blood pressure. Eat foods high in magnesium: These include kelp, wheat bran, wheat germ, almonds, cashews, buckwheat, brazil nuts, dulse, filberts, millet, pecans, walnuts, rye, tofu, soy beans, brown rice, figs, dates, collard greens, shrimp, avocado, parsley, beans, barley, dandelion greens, and garlic
