The Twitch
Act on it and relax

How often do the muscles around your eyes start to twitch?
How long since you’ve noticed?
It may be time to up your magnesium intake.
Before reaching for supplements, there are a number of delicious options that can take care of that twitch!
Magnesium-rich foods
- dark chocolate: nice one! Keep it to 1 square a day (your liver will thank you for it).
- bananas: they also contain lots of potassium. Make a banana & kiwi salad for added nutrients and you’re flying!
- almonds: have you tried these energy balls? I can’t recommend them enough.
- avocadoes: healthy & yummy. On the shopping list, they go.
- pumpkin & sesame seeds. They jazz up any meal.
- broccoli: they’re delicious raw as a snack, too.
- salmon: magnesium, omega 3 and all.
Magnesium-rich water
Check the label and go for any bottled water containing at least 50mg of magnesium per liter.
Magnesium supplements
If you work out a plan for magnesium supplementation with your physician or pharmacist, make sure to take it during meals. This is when it is better absorbed.

Healthy levels of magnesium have all-round benefits. They
- contribute to bone health
- help prevent states of anxiety
- can ward off migraines
- improve sleep quality
- reduce blood pressure
- help with pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS).
Now your twitch is gone, and your whole body is reset.
And it’s not just in theory — at least I can vouch for it. How about you?
