Magnesium and leg cramps

#1

I’ve been all over this forum site so I may have missed some posts that answer my question, but I was wondering whether it is possible to eat enough magnesium to meet daily ‘requirement’ and remain true to the low-carb Keto diet?

I’ve been having leg cramps for the past week or two (in week 8 of Keto diet) and was just looking at nutritional information about magnesium (and calcium). Looks like many of the sources of magnesium are also carb rich . . . I am trying to learn to like salmon.

Advice?

This has a good food list.

Thanks, Ron.

This information is VERY helpful, not only for data on Magnesium but on several other important nutrients as well.

Any food that contains chlorophyll contains magnesium.
