How much magnesium do I need?

Created by Support Team, Modified on Tue, 21 Feb, 2023 at 4:15 PM by Support Team

Here at Alkaline for Life, we recommend starting at 610 mg of magnesium for women and 700 mg of magnesium for men. In some cases, individuals need more. For example, at the Center for Better Bones, our clients commonly see success with 1,000 mg per day of magnesium in alkalizing form. It is very likely that our prehistoric ancestors consumed easily 1,000 mg of magnesium a day. In fact, Dr. Stanley Eaton has estimated in his studies that our paleolithic ancestors consumed on average 1,223 mg per day of magnesium.
