Let’s talk about foot and leg cramps at night, also known as nocturnal cramps. Nocturnal cramps can be very painful and even prevent you from sleeping. .

Unfortunately, the cause of nocturnal cramps is unknown. But, a potential cause could be an electrolyte imbalance—a deficiency in electrolytes, such as magnesium, calcium, potassium, or sodium. But, sometimes, people will take electrolytes without noticing much of a difference.

Another potential cause could be a problem with your pH. If your body is too alkaline, you won’t be able to transport minerals properly. This can create a lot of different problems, including cramping. In this case, you could try just acidifying the body.

Potential remedies for leg and foot cramps at night:

1. Quinine (the natural version: cinchona officinalis, or tonic water)

2. Yellow mustard (1 tbsp. before bed)

3. Apple cider vinegar (2 tbsp. mixed in water about an hour before bed)
