It's interesting to see how interest in magnesium increases over the years. This can't simply be dismissed as a passing fad.
The data on magnesium deficiency in the Spanish population are worrying and highlight the need to pay attention to magnesium supplementation.
Prevalent deficiency:
Studies such as one conducted by the Spanish Nutrition Foundation indicate that approximately 80% of the Spanish population has calcium and magnesium intakes below the daily recommendations.
Daily intake recommendations:
According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the recommended daily intake of magnesium is 300 mg/day for women and 350 mg/day for men. For children, the amounts range from 170 to 300 mg/day, depending on age.
Essential functions:
Magnesium is involved in reducing tiredness and fatigue, maintaining proper muscle function, and maintaining normal teeth and bones, among many other factors.
Food sources: Magnesium is found naturally in a variety of foods, including nuts, seeds, dark green leafy vegetables, some fruits (such as bananas, avocados, and peaches), and grains. However, many modern foods may not provide adequate amounts of magnesium due to the decrease in the nutrient in today's diet.
Supplementation on the Rise: Since many diets fail to meet recommended magnesium intakes, supplementation has become increasingly popular. There are a wide variety of magnesium supplements on the market, and they are generally considered safe for the general population when taken as directed.
And what do we do?
Considering that many diets cannot guarantee the recommended intakes, supplements are an important option to consider.
