donnadooley1

(due to pregnancy, statins, Parkinson's Dis., MS, dehydration, diabetes, spinal stenosis etc)

> sudden, involuntary, intense muscle pains usually in your calf, foot or thigh.

> may cause your leg to spasm – feels like a contracted muscle in a knot.

> can be severely uncomfortable, painful or even unbearable.

How to Stop Leg Cramps

1/ During cramp

- try forcefully stretching the affected muscle (for example, stretch your calf muscle by flexing your foot upward). Jiggle your leg, massage it, or force yourself to walk.

2/ To prevent cramps

Magnesium deficiency predisposes people to muscle cramps => take magnesium supplements.

DNA recommends taking Magnesium Citrate at night or using Magnesium Oil.
