Only getting vitamins and minerals from food is retarded

[flippasav]

Let’s say you want to eat something with a good source of magnesium. Bananas is a good example: 31 mg per medium one. But what else does it contain that Is high and I really hate? Carbs… It’s full of fucking carbs. Imagine having a pancake and a banna during fucking summer when your shredding.

Even parents say eating fruit is healthy of course it is eat moderate amount because it contains a lot of sugar

Take a multivitamin along with magnesium, vitamin d etc if necessary

ye i mean if u can get it from foods then get it since its absorbed better

Again. Some people find it challenging

Depends on the absorption rate of such things, take a great branded supplement like magnesium citrate and not other ones

Magnesium helps to maintain normal nerve function and muscle function, it supports your immune system and regulates your heartbeat. Sign of a magnesium deficiency include muscle cramps, muscle twitching, heart palpitations, fatigue, constipation. Overall it's a very important mineral for maximising physical output.

Intracellular magnesium is correlated with intracellular potassium. Increased magnesium lowers calcium and can either prevent hypercalcemia or cause hypocalcemia depending on the initial level. Both low and high protein intake conditions inhibit magnesium absorption, as does the amount of phosphate, phytate, and fat in the gut. Unabsorbed dietary magnesium is excreted in feces; absorbed magnesium is excreted in urine and sweat. The ideal ratio of calcium and magnesium is around 2:1.

Most people need around 400mg of magnesium a day, but this amount can go substantially higher if you are physically active. More is always better than not enough.

Animal food source	mg of magnesium per 100g
Oyster	150
Crab	110
Mackerel	75
Anchovies	45
Tuna	35
Muscle meat in general	25
Cheese	25
Liver	20

As you can see seafood is by far the best source of magnesium in the animal kingdom, but they still don't contain a lot. Some amount do adds up but you should get the rest from water. Magnesium-rich water used to be the norm in nature, where our ancestors could drink water which has gone through layers of limestone.

This is no longer a privilege for most of us, but the second best thing is drinking mineral water or by simply adding some more magnesium with supplements. It's very location dependant, but in many places tap water also contains a considerable amount of magnesium (usually near limestone mountains , who would have thought).

Yeah and I am saying jfl at not taking it.

I take 400 mg a day through supplements and I feel fucking amazing bhai

Wouldn't ideal be getting it from organ meats?

Yes because it’s mostly lean meat with little fat. I eat a lot of chicken especially breasts because of the low fat content and high protein. Don’t forget it has a lot of magnesium too
