Magnesium-Containing Foods

Some studies prove that a low level of magnesium in the body would affect the rhythms of your heart. Thus, increasing the intake of this mineral can be a good way to reduce the risks of heart diseases, including atrial fibrillation. It is simple to get extra magnesium in your daily meals by consuming some of the following foods: yogurt, whole grains, avocados, spinach, peanut butter, peanuts, and nuts, particularly cashews or almonds. However, too much magnesium can lead to some health issues. Thus, consult your doctor for recommended daily intake. [5]
