Top 50 Foods Highest in Magnesium — Per Serving

Ranked by magnesium content per typical serving size. The Daily Value is 420mg.

Unlike per-100g rankings, this list uses realistic serving sizes — so you see how much magnesium you actually get from a normal portion. Serving sizes come from FDA RACC, USDA household measures, or curated defaults.
