Magnesium and its role in the body

Magnesium is an essential mineral that the body cannot produce itself, so it has to come from food. Magnesium is found, for example, in wholegrain products, nuts, seeds, legumes, green leafy vegetables and cocoa. If the diet is one-sided or these foods are eaten rarely, a food supplement can help top up magnesium intake. The daily dose contains 339 mg of magnesium (90% NRV), so the product is a source of magnesium.
