Pickle juice

[Cljagreen]

After trying hylands leg cramp OTC Med which helped some we started taking 1/2 cup of pickle juice every night before bed. It is an old fashioned remedy that really works!!

Hi there Cljagreen, I am guessing by your enthusiasm that it must be helping you. I have usually found magnesium chloride to help me with cramps. I usually get cramps soon after eating bananas, as in 30 minutes, so I am hesitant to eat bananas. I think I would be hesitant to drink pickle juice because I thought it was rich in potassium like bananas but I just read it is actually rich in sodium, potassium, and magnesium. I may try it one day just for research purposes! LOL! All the best to you! Here is the link for the article I read on drinking pickle juice. It is pretty good. health.clevelandclinic.org/...
