Eat more bananas
Do you have any idea how expensive that is?
Fairly cheap, thanks to banana-cia.

It's what plants crave
Just be careful if you have kidney issues. Electrolytes can be VERY dangerous if their levels build up
But it's what plants crave.
So you're saying if I ingest enough electrolytes I won't need to eat veggies because they will invade my intestines of their own volition to get to the electrolyte treasures hidden within?
Yea it’s called gut flora. You understand correctly.
Magnesium and stretching helped me
Calcium in the morning and Magnesium after dinner for me.
Make sure it's magnesium biglycinate in the evening.
Mg citrate in the morning, if needed.
Last time I took blood minerals test, it showed that I got over the normal amounts of magnesium. Can't remember having cramp last time. It did happen, but like 10 or more years ago.
When you take a deep breath and feel your tummy rumble
Kind of fun to watch, tbf.
Have they figured out why you get cramps nowadays? I have heard many explanations but none seems to be backed scientifically.
Magnesium. (prevents, not causes)
I've also heard that tonic water with quinine will stop cramping pretty much right away, though I haven't tried it personally.
