BuffyBear's Journal, 23 May 2024

Stuck with Beef, butter & eggs all day yesterday and feel much better today. Future diet goals include giving up coffee - but not quite ready for that yet.

First I need to find another source of electrolytes to substitute for Gatorade Zero (if I don't drink Gatorade I get leg cramps at night).

Anyone know of one that has no taste?

Hey Buffy! Finally found a post I could comment on. I have been taking a magnesium supplement that works for me. I tried adding more salt but when I use my muscles more, I have to take something for the cramps. Pickle juice only goes so far. LOL! I watched a youtube (forget her name but she is carnivore and is always putting up her lab tests) ... well, she takes 2 magnesium supplements and a potassium. Plus she says because she was taking such a high dose of D that she depleted her stores of magnesium ... which offs potassium. Too complicate for me, but I ordered what she took because there is nothing funny about cramps. I have been getting nerve pain or cramps across my shoulders .... never had these before.

Hey Morticia! It must be a common thing because a lot of people take magnesium for night cramps. I was getting them really bad in my calves when I was working as a Personal Shopper because I was pushing a cart all day long. The Magnesium supplement I found was by MG Sport and its just for muscle cramps.

Thanks Mom & Morticia. I will get some magnesium ASAP.

My husband had terrible nighttime leg cramps. I bought this on Amazon & it helped right away: Key Nutrients Electrolyte Recovery Plus. It’s a powder with a mild lemonade flavor. Zero calories, sugar, carbs

Buffy I meant to say my daughter likes Prime Zero for electrolytes. She also is who told me to take magnesium.
