ALmost impossible to get mag from food since soils have so little in them. I take 800-1000mg a day of liquid ionic magnesium called REMAG and it makes me feel so much better. I spread it out through the day and also take it if I wake at night. You also need more mag if you take D3.
Unfortunately the CBC test done by doctors doesn't check magnesium but it is worthless anyway since 98% of mag and potassium are in the cells. Only works if you are super deficient and your body cannot keep it balanced.
Thank you for the simple explanation. Is it possible that the potassium level is okay and the magnesium one could be to low? Or do they always go hand in hand?
Many conditions cause deficiency in both but you can still see in some occasions hypomagnesemia without hypokalemia. PPI as an example are more common to cause primarily hypomagnesemia alone. Thanks for watching
