Cashews: more magnesium than almonds!

• 🌰 Cashews might be the real nutty winner when it comes to magnesium. One ounce provides about 83 mg, or roughly 20% of your daily need, slightly topping almonds at 76 mg, according to Verywell Health.
• 🌰 Magnesium plays a key role in your body’s daily operations - it helps your heart, muscles, and bones function properly, keeps blood pressure steady, and supports your energy and metabolism. Yet many people still fall short of getting enough.
• 🌰 Along with magnesium, cashews are packed with protein, healthy fats, copper, zinc, and iron - all nutrients your body depends on.

🏆 More magnesium-rich fruit:

Avocado
Avocados are famous for their healthy fats, but they’re also surprisingly high in magnesium - about 58 mg per medium fruit. That’s one of the highest amounts among fruits. Their creamy texture and fiber content make them especially gentle on the stomach, helping digestion and easing constipation. Regularly adding avocado to meals can support gut health, muscle function, and overall mineral balance in a naturally delicious way.

🍍 Pineapple
Best known for its enzyme bromelain, pineapple also provides a helpful 20 mg of magnesium per cup. While not the top source, it offers a rare combination of fiber, enzymes, and minerals that benefit the digestive system. Bromelain helps reduce inflammation in the gut, and magnesium keeps digestive muscles relaxed. Together, they make pineapple a light, refreshing choice for better digestion and a balanced system.

✅ How to get more magnesium:

• • Eat a mix of magnesium-rich foods every day - your body only absorbs about half of what you consume.
• • Try pairing magnesium-rich sources. Add Cashews, Avocados, Bananas, Pineapple, or Spinach to your meals and snacks.
• • Remember, caffeine, age, and certain medications can reduce absorption, so balance your diet and check with your doctor if needed.
• • A handful of cashews can go a long way - for your heart, your energy, and your bones.
