I have heard that a couple of mustard packs will make muscle cramps stop. Does anyone have any knowledge of this. I looked at mustard a little and the ingredients doesn't reflect what we find in electrolite drinks. I haven't had any cramps since I heard of this so I have yet to try it for myself :)

No, but Pickle Juice works wonders!

Never heard of that. Could be the vinegar in the mustard. Best thing for cramps is regular strength Tums. Works almost instantly.
