    Poor diet is one of the main reasons for mineral deficiencies in athletes.   When consumed with training, many people don’t pay enough attention to their dietary intake and increasing their nutrients based on activity level.     Magnesium is tied to energy activation in muscles, nerves and bloodflow.

    This article makes one food recommendation for cyclists in need of magnesium that we’ve never seen discussed:

    “Liquorice is a good source of magnesium, but choose the original black variety made from molasses rather than brightly coloured Allsorts. Liquorice can provide a dose of fast release carbohydrate and is a useful snack to carry on a ride. If you decide to take a magnesium supplement, choose the citrate form or magnesium chelated with amino acids. These are twice as well absorbed as magnesium carbonate or sulphate.”
