Food sources of magnesium: Foods that are high in fiber are generally high in magnesium.

An easy way to remember foods that are good magnesium sources is to think fiber. Foods that are high in fiber are generally high in magnesium. 

Dietary sources of magnesium include legumes, 
whole grains, 
vegetables (especially broccoli, squash, and green leafy vegetables), 
seeds, 
nuts (especially almonds)

Other sources include dairy products, meats, chocolate, and coffee. Water with a high mineral content, or “hard” water, is also a source of magnesium.
