High Magnesium

These high magnesium recipes are a great way to make sure you always get enough of this important mineral!

Magnesium is a mineral with many and diverse functions in the body, and it's especially important for heart health. Among its many roles, magnesium plays a part in protein synthesis, blood sugar control, muscle and nerve function, blood pressure regulation, bone strength, and heart rhythm regulation.

Many people don't get enough magnesium, mostly due to suboptimal eating habits. Without enough magnesium, inflammation can build up in the body, eventually leading to diseases like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. Osteoporosis can also occur over time, because your body will pull magnesium out of your bones when you don't have enough circulating in your blood.
