Magnesium-Rich Foods May Be Linked To Reduced Stroke Risk.

Reuters (1/17, Seaman) reports that, according to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, individuals who consume a high amount of food rich in magnesium may have a lower risk of stroke. Investigators looked at data from seven studies. The researchers found that for each additional 100 milligrams of magnesium an individual consumed daily, their ischemic stroke risk was reduced by nine percent.
