I track my nutrients in CronOmeter and one of the only two micronutrients I'm regularly short on is Magnesium, this is has gone on so long that I finally got a RD recommended Mg supplement.

Anyway, I was a little surprised to learn that this deficiency is wide spread.

Mg and K are my two problem areas. and yes, I know, I need to eat more potatoes.
Although I eat a lot of those things that are between 40 and 80 mg, I need to eat 7 or more servings of those things a day - and I just don't normally get up that high. My mg sup has 100 mg. So that helps lots.
