Great post on this subject Pete. I wasn’t even aware of an issue with magnesium deficiency and celiac disease. I mean, of course I was aware that people with celiac disease can have nutrient deficiencies prior to the gluten free diet, but I didn’t think about it in relation to being glutened. I guess it’s a good thing I’ve started drinking green smoothies with super fresh kale! Though, I have definitely been eating my share of beans and lentils, whole grains, and almonds too.
I never realized magnesium was also an electrolyte. This really gave me some info I was not aware of. Often our health problems are rooted in nutritional deficiencies.
Great article. I have seen quite a bit about the need for additional calcium and additional Vitamin D, but not much about magnesium. Did you come across a recommended amount for additional supplementation for those that need it? I take additional calcium/magnesium and vitamin D to try to build back up my bone density after my osteopenia was found after celiac diagnosis. I’m not really sure how much magnesium I should be taking though.
Great post. I’m so thankful my doctor told me to take extra Mg. So many of the ideas you mention now make sense to me, given the state of my health at the time!

Thanks for the great article! I am on the recovery road to 30 years of undiagnosed coeliac and trying to establish which supplements I really need. I know there was something not right with my body still with muscles/nerves even though I have nailed a good concoction of vit B, D, iron. THIS is it! THANK YOU x I really understand the role it plays now. Into my regime it goes!
