I've done some reading online, but I like the advice from members in this board.
I'm interested after reading this comment by WestCoaster: "Ironically diets both high and low in calcium also interfere with absorption. So diets high in milk and OJ theoretically aren't magnesium absorbing friendly. It's all about balance as they say. Another thing we can list in there is poor stomach acid. A couple of the contributors to low stomach acid are both diets high in liquid and diets too low in fat.
If we want to look at it on a very broad scale, you look at the #1 thing that will determine one's thyroid function and ability to absorb any nutrients or vitamin/minerals, and that's stomach acid. With low stomach acid, one simply isn't getting the nutrients they think they are out of any food, so thyroid function will inevitably go down at some point. This is also why we see a ton of people with B12 deficiency despite eating diets that include meat. People really underestimate the effects have having too little HCL (which one of the indicators is acid reflux/heartburn)."
