Mag D(Item #616)

Daily intake of 420mg of Magnesium (Mg) for men and 320mg for women. However, recent reports estimate that many Americans do not consume the recommended daily amount of Mg. Part of the problem stems from the soil used for agriculture, which is becoming increasingly deficient in essential minerals. Moreover, the Western diet contains more refined grains and processed food. Estimates are that 80–90% of Mg is lost during food processing. Vitamin D is often obtained from sunlight or liver and fatty fish. Most vitamin D from plants is in the form of Vitamin D2 and must be converted to D3 in the body.
