Leg Cramps and Charlie Horses

Leg cramps or charlie horse

OK, just what are leg cramps and charlie horse/s and why do they happen? A muscle cramp is a sudden, uncontrolled contraction of a muscle. No one really knows why the muscle cramps it is unknown.

Now I don't know about you, but when I get a charlie horse or cramp in my leg it hurts.
And then after you work it out of your leg ( ooo man the pain walking on it the next day).
Well here is a little tidbit" Mustard" that will help you, and in a few minutes your charlie horse will be gone, and no pain the next day.

Now I know this is not going to sound appealing to do, and so many people I've told this method to would rather suffer in pain I guess.

But this really helps tremendously "ready for this" it's Mustard. ( any kind of mustard yellow, brown, spicy ect.)That's right people just by eating 1tsp. of mustard your leg cramp or charlie horse will ease up.

And here is the best part " there is no ache the next day" the muscle relaxes almost immediately ( now this works for a lot of people, but for some it may not).

And if you'd like to keep those charlie horses away try eating a banana a day.
Banana's are a good source of potassium and a lot of people don't get enough.


Also make sure you are "drinking plenty of water a day".
