You should eat some bananas. The potasium helps with leg cramps.

do you mean night time leg cramps? eat foods rich in potassium and stay hydrated. try drinking a shot of tonic water once a day. it contains quinine which really helps with the cramps.

Might want to check with your MD.
The quick fix for the occasional cramps is a tablespoon of plain old mustard. It works I have used it.
Cramps are also a sign of dehydration you might want to increase your water intake. None of us drink enough water and no soda does not count it hurts.
take care and stay positive:-)

Sounds like a Potassium deficiency right off hand. Try eating a banana or yogurt daily. See if that helps. If not, go see your doctor.

Keep well hydrated, drink a glass of water before bed if you can. It's also said that foods high in potassium & calcium can help prevent them

Drinking enough water and increasing the salt intake you can prevent cramps, apply oil and wash it with hot water is one of the home remedies. More remedies available at http://aches.in/cramps.html

eating bananas, staying hydrated - all good solutions... but what really works for me is half a cup of pickle juice before exercise. I thought it was weird when they recommended that, but it works great...
