Thanh Thanh |

Food.NDTV offers magnesium-rich foods that are good for bones and prevent blood sugar spikes.

Magnesium is the most abundant mineral in the body, mainly found in bones, and plays an important role in our daily activities. The adult body has about 20-25 grams of magnesium, and about 60-70% of that is found in bones.

Magnesium regulates many different biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood sugar control, and blood pressure regulation.

We need magnesium to help blood vessels relax, produce energy, develop bones, and transport calcium and potassium.

The recommended daily intake of magnesium is 340 milligrams for men and 310 milligrams for women.

Avocado

Avocados are high in magnesium. You can add them to salads or sandwiches. Add about half an avocado to your daily diet to ensure you get enough of this mineral. Avocados are also a good source of potassium and healthy fats, which support a healthy heart.

Black chocolate

Dark chocolate is high in magnesium. Eating about 6-8 grams of pure dark chocolate per day is good for your health.

Tuna

In addition to being rich in magnesium, tuna is also high in vitamin D and healthy omega-3 fats. Tuna can be grilled, steamed, or added to salads.

Green leafy vegetables

Magnesium is found in all dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach, collard greens, Swiss chard and kale.
