I have muscle cramps all day long with different parts of my body . I took over the couture meds and it’s does work . What else can I do
Try tonic water before bedtime, it has a certain amount of quinine in it. It can help with cramp and restless leg syndrome
Pineapple is one of my go to’s.
The enzyme bromelain along with potassium helps with cramps. I might still take a THC/CBD combo on occasion, but it has made it where I don’t take much.
And I also take magnesium glycinate, but like most things it does have some med interactions.
Make a note of what you're eating and drinking. Keep a diary . What works for one person does not work for another necessarily . I cannot take pineapple. It makes my stomach churn. I do like the homeopathic Highlands muscle cramps product that's in the tube. I also make sure I don't eat any trigger foods that cause cramps, i e, foods with sugar and high sugar juices like orange juice. Definitely no orange juice or really any other fruit juice because they're all too high in sugar and cause horrible cramps for me.
