A
cram is a sudden, involuntary muscle
contraction involving a single muscle
or a series of muscle. This is
happens when the body temporarily
loses its ability to control the
muscle.
The most common reasons for cramps
are low potassium (which the body
uses for muscle control), dehydration
(which alter the availability of
potassium and other minerals) and
lack of fitness in the affected
muscle group for the exercise its
doing. All of these can contribute
simultaneously.
Prevent cramps by staying well hydrated
(which also reduces DCI risk) and
eating a properly balanced diet.
Bananas supply high potassium if
you believe you need to boost your
potassium levels. If you frequently
experience cramps in a particular
muscle group, exercise to develop
those muscle
