I kinda wish there was a way to get tap water fortified with whatever magnesium it is thats in spring water or failing that magnesium glycinate.
My understanding is magnesium deficiency is a common thing and that lack of it causes several musculo-skeletal and nervous system problems and in general a less relaxed state of being when deficient
San pellegrino would be interesting to look at since it has a good deal of magnesium in its spring water, those lucky bastards got that good stuff on tap😋
I would rather find ways to encourage people to eat foods that are natural sources of magnesium. They provide lots of other dietary benefits beyond just magnesium.
Soy products (milk, flour, tofu)
Legumes and seeds
Nuts (almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts)
Peanuts and peanut butter
Whole grain breads and cereals (brown rice, millet)
Fruit (bananas, dried apricots, etc.)
Vegetables, particularly dark green, leafy vegetables (artichokes, chard, beet greens, avocados, etc.)
Dried beans (lima, black-eyed peas, navy)
Beans are the only protein I can afford so I guess I’m good
Hemp seeds are the richest in Mg that I’m aware of atm
There’s something so luxurious about drinking it straight from the Earth’s blood (water, not oil haha)
