[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1443833, member: 41816"] I'm always a little wary of making 'claims' about supplements, for a whole host of reasons. Dosing, and efficacy, and time to take effect, and so on. We all vary so much. But from what I have observed, from my own supplement intake: -[B][I] for me[/I][/B], magnesium seems to help with muscle weakness and heavy limbs, but not really with cramping - but other people find it does help with cramps - [B][I]for me[/I][/B], potassium rapidly helps with cramping. I find it works within a couple of hours, and so long as I remember to take the tablets, does not reoccur The reason I know that [B][I]for me[/I][/B] potassium has more effect on cramps than magnesium, is that I used potassium for years and it eliminated my cramps for years (I have been low carbing for a loooooong time ;) ). Then I arrived on this forum, and ppl kept recommending magnesium - so I tried it - and I found that it helped with trembly legs and heavy limbs. Hope that makes sense. [/QUOTE]
