hi guys Dr Berg here I had another question from someone who asked me you know I’m taking minerals Dr Berg but I still have leg cramps okay now when you do the ketogenic diet or intere fasting sometimes you’re going to get leg cramps and that’s usually a matter of replacing or putting in more electrolytes it’s usually a Calcium deficiency magnesium potassium or sodium okay that should normally handle it but if it doesn’t there’s something else going on and that’s a vitamin E deficiency part of vitamin E complex uh which is it’s called the E2 fraction of the vitamin E complex in nature has um some great properties of improving symptoms like angina which is chest pain which is basically a heart that’s cramping up so it vitamin E addresses a certain fraction of vitamin E addresses the um muscle itself it increases oxygen in the muscle to prevent cramping of the heart muscle in fact you can increase the oxygen carrying capacity by 250% also vitamin E is used in high altitude you know like climbing mountain climbing where you can actually you just breathe better if you have enough vitamin E so vitamin E is very important in helping the red blood cells carry oxygen and also helping the muscle um provide enough oxygen so you don’t so it doesn’t cramp okay so we need more vitamin E from the food that you’re eating make sure if you’re going to do an vitamin E supplement it’s a natural vitamin E complex not just a synthetic fraction of one of the alpha talls you want the whole thing uh so what foods are high in vitamin E raw greens leafy greens and vegetables lettuce sunflower seeds make sure they’re raw almonds spinach chard cabbage uh kale avocados and asparagus okay start consuming those and your cramps will go away thanks for watching hey if you haven’t already subscribed press this little button down below okay thanks
