Hi Larry, Bananas are high in potassium so they would help with leg cramps.

I heard that bananas are good for achy legs. My sister swears by it. Julie c4-5 On Mon, 23 May 2005 18:52:08 -0400 "William Willis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > John, > Do bananas actually help?

Re: [QUAD-L] About Spasms...hey John
I think the potassium in bananas seems to help circulation in muscles. I also take aspirin which thins the blood and helps the circulation. Bananas calm down my spasms and they taste pretty good. As I've gotten older my leg joints have lost most of their cartilage. Since pain will cause spasms, I'm forced to take tylenol and hydrocodone, especially on the days when rain is moving in. I tried baclofin and yea, that stuff is lousy with side effects. The diazepam is far superior and has the side effect of reducing anxiety. (this makes them sought after by druggies) The bananas are something I learned to use for muscle cramps before my accident. One works pretty good or not at all because the cause is elsewhere. I sure hope it helps you. I hate when I start impersonating Dr. Strangelove. john
