52.2% of adults are deficient in Magnesium.
That's a scary proposition when you consider the importance of the mineral.
See magnesium is responsible for more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the human body and a low intake is associated with a myriad of unpleasant health issues including:
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Fatigue
- Heart Disease
- and Osteoperosis
Now in a perfect world, we'd get all the magnesium we need from our diets. Unfortunately, this is getting harder and harder to achieve largely due to poor agricultural practices and declining soil quality.
Now while we do sell a magnesium supplement (shameless plug) we're still big advocates of you getting as much of your micronutrition through diet as possible.
Luckily there are a number of superfoods that still are jam-packed with this essential nutrient, 6 of which feature in today's recipe which (if you not already guessed) is a mouth watering chocolate pudding that Emma whipped for us the other day.
It's packed with magnesium and available to you through the link below.
