[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know it sounds crazy, but I used to get terrible middle of the night leg cramps as a competitive gymnast. My dad started taking some medication (I forget for what) and he would get leg cramps also. His doctor told him that he should quickly eat mustard and it tricks the brain into releasing the muscle. He tried it and it worked, so I tried it and it works. We both kept little packets of mustard next our bed for years. I don't get them very often anymore. I do and have always hated mustard, but it does work. [/quote] I was going to post about my dad and mustard! He swears by it. I don’t know if it is the vinegar in it? Someone said pickle juice, too. We were just talking about it today - my aunt said my uncle is taking vinegar capsules to prevent his. [/quote]
