What are the Recommended Daily Intake suggestions for Magnesium by age?
Dr. Carol Dean, author of The Magnesium Miracle, notes that many magnesium experts believe that the Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) of magnesium should be increased due to the vital role it plays in the body and the poor absorption commonly seen with dietary magnesium. It should also be noted that the RDI is merely set at the minimum level to stave off deficiency symptoms, but many people are already running low. Despite this, the current RDI's are below, although it has been conceded that some people may benefit from higher quantities of magnesium intake.

Still doing well so far. I have chronic migraines and the magnesium seems to be helping a great deal. In about 7 months, my migraines went from 20+ per month to 2+ per month. The only thing that I did differently was use the magnesium. I'm very well pleased with your company from the website design all the way to the quickness of your shipping. Thanks for the email follow-up and it's great to see a company that hasn't lost its sense of customer service. It's a pleasure doing business with you.
