produce (winter squashes, various root vegetables and such), being
naturally high in magnesium, boosts folks' magnesium levels to the

If that's true industrial farming and food processing has probably
flattened that trend but increased food prices and the ensuing
resurgence of home gardening as well as the localvore movement might
restore it.
