This will come as a shocker, and It's not commonly known, but there's quite a bit of research accumulating, showing that extreme electrolyte imbalances such as magnesium deficiencies can exacerbate or even cause anxiety and depression. It's closely linked to our Calcium intake (which is often waaayyy too high for people who really like dairy - it's higher than you think because the US recommendation is twice what it should be: 1000mg vs the WHOs recommendation of 500mg - this means if the label says you got 30% of DRI of calcium, you actually got 60% or more!). Too much Calcium inhibits the absorbtion of magnesium, thus compounding the issue even more. Some studies even show, that with calcium intake increased, their depression levels. And with increased magnesium intake, depression levels decrease: "Case histories are presented showing rapid recovery (less than 7 days) from major depression using 125-300 mg of magnesium (as glycinate and taurinate) with each meal and at bedtime" Here's one of the studies:

Back to the question: With all their money, they could probably afford to eat the very best foods and could higher a nutritionist to help them plan high magnesium foods. For everyone else without all that money, there's always my nutrient based food/recipe finder: https://kale.world/c Use it to find the most Magnesium dense foods or any other nutrient for that matter. |
