Take a table spoon of yellow mustard. This is instant releaf, I always do 2 but the cramp starts letting up right away. I mean one of those bad ones that takes your breath away.

I was told Charlie horses and leg cramps were a potassium deficiency so that gives me an excuse to eat bananas

I get leg cramps pretty bad sometimes, especially after climbing tree stands at the first of hunting season, working off ladders, etc.. It's just like AKA said, the cramp is frequently at night while in bed asleep. The muscle that cramps is on the back of my thigh. The cramps come on so sudden and are so painful that I will leap up out of bed trying to straighten the leg and muscle. It is a very intense pain. Sometimes it takes 5 to 15 minutes to get it worked out. Maybe a mouthful of mustard tastes so bad that you forget all about the painful cramp. Lol......you would be surprised how quickly that yellow mustard works.Its really not bad at all.Besides I can't drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day.

I get those at night.....A trick that works for me is this. I lift me heel up and push my toes down into the floor.....usually takes care of the pain after a couple seconds or so.... never heard of the mustard thing. And with type II , I probably drink more water than any normal person should .
