Here’s what Rachel Kreider, MPH, RD has to say about all things magnesium:

“Did you know that magnesium is involved in hundreds of enzymatic processes throughout our body? So it should come as no surprise that magnesium is important for hormone regulation, bone formation, protein synthesis, and energy production.”

“If you’re looking to increase the amount of magnesium in your diet, you can shoot for things like nuts, legumes, leafy greens, and seafood.”

“But if you’re not getting enough in your diet, you can always come check us out for a supplement. We’ve got magnesium in lots of delivery formats, including liquids, tablets and capsules, we even have Super Magnesium which combines 3 highly absorbable types of magnesium into one convenient pill. We’ve got delicious soft chews and even magnesium gummies.”
