Leg cramps solution?

Question

Anyone find a solution to reduce leg cramps? I started taking magnesium since that's more likely to be helpful compared to potassium. I've also been using a foam roller on my legs before bed. Yet, I still sometimes get painful leg cramps in the middle of the night that keep me up.

Answer

Gatorade and lots of water help me.

Answer

Bananas are literally the only thing that help me. If I don’t eat one a day I’m up all night with Charlie horses

Answer

I take a magnesium,  potassium,  calcium pill,  drink an electrolyte powder I add to a glass of water and drink lots of water.  I'm going to add in electrolyte water since I have been feeling the start of leg cramps.

Answer

Calcium helps too! If I skip my calcium supplement I’m miserable.

Answer

I’ve been suffering from the same thing. I’ve been taking my prenatal tabs religiously but not helping. It’s 3 pills a day. One is omega 3, calcium, magnesium and potassium and the 3rd is a multivitamin and I eat bananas, yoghurt etc... I guess it’s just part of pregnancy. I’ve been waking up every night with cramps and in pain.

Answer

Apparently it can also be iron deficiency so you could try iron supplement?
