[QUOTE="KevinPotts, post: 1186121, member: 290458"] I was reading The Art and Science Of Low Carb Performance last night. This is Phinney & Volek's excellent book for athletes and in their chapter on mins and vits, they point out that Magnesium deficiency is one of the most unrecognised deficiencies triggering leg cramps. They recommend a 30 day course of slow release Mag pro... Or similar and not the stuff with glucanate which is pretty ineffective. They also talk a lot about the need to cook food containing magnesium correctly, not boiling, but steaming/grilling etc. I can see that wookie101 found a separate resolution, but thought the observation re cramps was interesting enough to summarise and include in this post:) Sent from my iPhone using [url=https://siteowners.tapatalk.com/byo/displayAndDownloadByoApp?rid=67]DCUK Forum[/url] [/QUOTE]
