Magnesium...are you getting enough?

"A Harvard study that followed 127,000 people for 18 years found that those who consumed the most magnesium were the least likely to develop Type 2 diabetes."

Dear Lifestyler,

Did you know that getting enough magnesium is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of heart disease.

Well ... it's also a very good way to reduce your risk of diabetes.

In fact, one of the diagnostic criteria for diabetes is a low level of magnesium.

Why magnesium?

Magnesium is essential for over 300 functions in your body, including the production and use of insulin.

A number of studies suggest that seven out of 10 people do not get enough of this mineral.

The best source of magnesium is from fresh organic food:

• leafy green vegetables
• nuts, seeds, whole grains
• avocados.

If you don't eat a lot of these foods, it would be wise to supplement your diet with a multi-vitamin or multi-mineral that has magnesium in it.
