I have recently discovered that the repeating leg muscle cramps I have also been suffering is cured by taking more salt . is this the connection?
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The repeated muscle cramps that you are getting which improve on taking salt regularly are likely to be related to electrolyte imbalances. Taking adequate electrolyte rich fluids like Garotade will help you. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
