Magnesium deficiency is running rampant among Americans. One study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health shows that 68% of Americans don't get enough magnesium.1 Other experts put the number closer to 80%.2
Here are 10 of the most common magnesium deficiency symptoms you'll feel when your body is screaming for more magnesium...
- Leg cramps and muscle tension*
- Low energy*
- Weak bones*
- Trouble sleeping*
- Chocolate cravings*
- Occasional constipation*
- Headaches*
- Eye twitches*
- Feelings of anxiousness*
- You take any of these medications*
If you suffer from one or more of these, it's likely your body needs more magnesium.
This can be done through diet... Almonds are one of the highest magnesium-containing foods you can eat.
But there's something you need to know...
We got curious just how much magnesium there is in the best quality almonds (sprouted, organic, and unpasteurized).
So, we sent a bag off to a 3rd party lab and got it tested.
Test results came back at only 71 mg of magnesium per ounce, meaning you'd have to eat almost 6 ounces to get the recommended daily requirement of magnesium.
That would be about 1,000 calories and $9 per day.
Instead, add Jigsaw MagSRT® to your daily regimen and get 500 mg of magnesium (for only $0.67 a day)!
