Just had my first bit of sugar in six days and loŽintense cramps in right calf, left calf, left foot, left ankle and almost one in left thigh. OMG! These occurred within half an hour of eating mochi- sweet treats. Coincidence or reaction?

Magnesium is very good for keeping cramps at bay...at least it is for me. I use a powdered magnesium and it's nice because you can adjust the dose (too much magnesium can keep you in the bathroom)...so with the powdered type, if you find the recommended dose is too much, you can cut back. The name of the product is CALM...it's cheapest at Amazon.
I find that the magnesium seems to "calm" down cramping, and also helps with some of the sensory symptoms I have in my legs...but that's just me, everybody's different.
