You may notice that most diets suggest eating dark, leafy greens, and that’s because they are incredibly healthy. They also have tons of magnesium. The best examples are spinach, kale, collard green, mustard greens and turnip greens. In fact, 1-cup serving of cooked spinach has at least 157 mg of magnesium, which is 39% of the RDI. They are also great sources of other nutrients such as manganese, iron, and vitamins A, C, and K. Plus they can help protect your cells from damage, which helps lessen cancer risk.
