When I first started LC I really had problems with cramping legs and took
K+ (potassium) and flax seed oil as well as b complex multivitamin magnesium chromium but for the last 5 months or so I have been taking WeightSmart by One a Day and I NEVER get leg cramps like that. I haven't really altered my diet that much over time so I don't know If my body has adapted or what. the mulitvitamin only has 80 mg K+ and I was taking over 300 mg per day. just wondering.. -- Lori 220/150/135 LC since 1/17/03 Sept Challenge 155/150 http://community.webshots.com/user/lorismiller Back to Curves 6/30/03 |

Besides potassium, leg cramps can also be caused by a calcium deficiency,
magnesium deficiency or zinc deficiency, among other things. Including the ratio of any one of these to the others. I, personally, get immediate relief when I take 25 mg zinc, so have increased consumption of foods with it in them. Henrietta |

I went through my clothes again (2nd time this month) to weed out stuff that doesn't fit.

I still have leg cramps and wake screaming. I use Potassium right
then and there. I use the Atkins Basic 3 and the oil. Did not think about the diet. Thanks "Lorelei" wrote in message ink.net...
