A 2006 report from the World Health Organization estimated that 75% of
adults consume a diet that is deficient in magnesium. 2
One in five adults consumes less than half of the U.S. RDA for magnesium. 3
With poor health on the rise, and dietary magnesium levels at an all time low,
scientists have begun to turn to magnesium as the possible missing link behind
several of todays most troubling illnesses. A study by scientists at the Centers
for Disease Control, published in the Journal of Nutrition, explains:
Despite the role of magnesium in maintaining health, much of the U.S. population
has historically not consumed adequate amounts of magnesiumMagnesium is
an essential element that is crucial to hundreds of physiologic processes in
humans. Not surprisingly, inadequate intake of magnesium has been linked to
Increased sleep
