What Are Cramps?
Cramps are sudden, involuntary contractions of muscles that lead to pain and tension. During a cramp, muscle fibers contract uncontrollably. You can experience cramps in any muscle in your body, such as your calves, thighs, hamstrings, arms, shins, feet, or hands.
Muscle cramps usually occur during physical activity, such as swimming, running, cycling, or playing soccer.
What Causes Cramps?
Cramps often occur when you’re physically active, but they can also happen at random times. Cramps can be caused by:
- Overuse due to prolonged or intense physical activity,
- Dehydration,
- An imbalance of minerals,
- Poor blood circulation.

- Gradual Build-Up: Gradually increase your physical activities and avoid intense exertion if you don’t exercise regularly.
What Foods Help Prevent Cramps?
To prevent cramps, it’s essential to consume enough healthy nutrients, particularly the right minerals. Minerals, also known as electrolytes, cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained from your diet.
The key minerals to prevent cramps are magnesium, potassium, sodium, and calcium. Sodium is found in salt, and most people consume enough sodium. Focus on getting enough magnesium (from nuts, seeds, and spinach), potassium (from bananas, sweet potatoes, spinach, tomatoes), and calcium (from dairy products, kale, broccoli). An electrolyte drink can also help you get extra fluids and minerals before, during, or after exercise.
In short, eating healthy and drinking plenty of water helps prevent cramps.
Does Magnesium Help with Cramps?
Yes, magnesium is one of the most important minerals that can help prevent muscle cramps. Magnesium helps relax the muscles. Many people have a magnesium deficiency, which can lead to muscle cramps. If you frequently suffer from cramps, magnesium can help in this way.
How can you get extra magnesium? The easiest way to get extra magnesium is through the skin. Why wait for digestion? Kwakzalver Kramp Krachtig is a magnesium supplement that can be quickly absorbed through your skin. Also, eat enough magnesium-rich foods like nuts, seeds, vegetables such as spinach, and whole grains.
