Babsie95 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I have always gotten leg cramps occasionally in the night. They have been very infrequent like one every year or two years. However I am now on day 7 of my second whole 30 and have had 3. I did not have any on my first whole 30 so I am not sure if it is related or not but was wondering if this is something others have experienced and how they might have fixed it thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 13, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 13, 2014 I occasionally get foot cramps or calf cramps. I cannot figure out what makes them come or go. I don't see a pattern in my eating, drinking, exercise, or supplements. They are not as bad now as they were several years ago or even 6 months ago, but I don't know why.

Babsie95 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 I had been getting cramps in my side prior to my first whole 30 and during that time they went away completely and havent returned. I guess its a mystery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariana Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I only started getting leg cramps in the last 6 months. Always in my calf (one or the other). A friend told me he started taking Natural Calm powder (magnesium supplement) before bed and his nighttime muscle spasms completely went away. Also helps sleep! I guess a magnesium deficiency can cause all sorts of issues. I do not know if "Natural Calm" is W30 complient though - check first if you decide to try it! Amazon has it and there is lots of information in the reviews. And... I am not a Dr., so please research before you decide :-) Edited to add: http://naturalvitality.com/natural-calm/ The unflavored variety says this:Ingredients: Ionic Magnesium citrateContains no: yeast, dairy, egg, soy, wheat, sugar, starch, preservatives or artitifcial color or flavor. No added fructose. Cruelty-free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlaccini Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Yes Natural Calm is considered whole 30 compliant. Just don't order the flavoured ones and you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babsie95 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 how does the unflavoured taste? I hate to buy it and then find I just cant drink it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
