Approximately fifty percent of people in the United State do not consume enough magnesium daily. Foods that are a good source of dietary fiber are typically good sources of magnesium as well. Some foods which are significant sources of magnesium include almonds, avocados, black beans, peanuts and peanut butter, spinach, oatmeal, raisins, whole grain bread, yogurt, shredded wheat, potatoes with the skin, bananas, and pumpkin. If you don’t want to remember specific examples, just think dark, leafy greens, nuts & seeds, salmon & tuna, and avocados (a favorite for millenials).
