RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Magnesium is a nutrient that the body needs to stay healthy. Magnesium is important for many processes in the body, including regulating muscle and nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure, and making protein, bone, and DNA.
In addition to strengthening the immune system, the metal keeps heart rates steady and promotes bone strength. Therefore, it is important to know which foods are richest.
Here are five:
PUMPKIN SEEDS
