We’ve discussed the benefits of magnesium in addressing many conditions including migraines, restless leg syndrome, diabetes and stress. Now, a recent research study shows that magnesium may also figure into treatments for age-related memory decline. Using a magnesium compound, Magnesium-L-threonate (MgT) in laboratory studies with rats, researchers found that MgT helped stimulate areas of the brain that have to do with spatial navigation and long term memory, and also boosted memory recall.
The study also indicated that only 32% of Americans get the recommended daily allowance of magnesium. (This figure varies widely but this one seems fairly accurate).

This Alternative Health Journal article mentioned a study at the University of Kentucky Medical Center showing that eating magnesium-rich foods as part of your diet can reduce the probability of gallstones in those who have a family history of this condition.

“The Kentucky researchers found that not getting enough magnesium can increase your triglycerides and lower HDL or good cholesterol. It adds up to compromising health on many fronts. They studied more than 42,000 men over a decade. Other studies have confirmed the potency of dietary magnesium.

There is a simple solution: Eat more plant-based foods to up your intake of fiber.”
