Edamame
Edamame are soybeans still in the pods. They’re usually steamed or boiled and can be eaten plain or added to a dish. Half a cup of shelled, cooked edamame beans have 50 mg of magnesium. [4]
Avocados
The avocado is an incredibly nutritious fruit and a tasty source of magnesium. One medium avocado provides 58 mg of magnesium, 15% of the RDI (7). Avocados are also high in potassium, B vitamins, and vitamin K. And unlike most fruits, they’re high in fat — especially heart-healthy monounsaturated fat. In addition, avocados are an excellent source of fiber. In fact, 13 of the 17 grams of carbs in an avocado come from fiber, making it very low in digestible carbs. Studies have shown that eating avocados can reduce inflammation, improve cholesterol levels, and increase feelings of fullness after meals.
Summary: A medium avocado provides 15% of the RDI for magnesium. Avocados fight inflammation, improve cholesterol levels, increase fullness, and are packed with several other nutrients. [5]
