Nutritional Support for Lower Extremity Muscle Cramps: Protocol Focus: Calf, Foot, and Nocturnal Leg Cramps
Muscle cramps in the legs and feet often result from calcium/magnesium imbalance, electrolyte shifts, dehydration, or nerve irritation. Whole-food supplements help support proper mineral delivery to muscles and promote relaxation.
Disclaimer Educational only—not medical advice. Standard Process products do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent muscle cramps. Consult your doctor before starting, especially with kidney issues, medications, or frequent cramps. Monitor symptoms and consider electrolyte labs if needed.
Key Lifestyle Essentials
- Hydrate (3+ liters water/day)
- Stretch calves/hamstrings daily (especially before bed)
- Wear supportive shoes/orthotics
- Warm up before activity; elevate legs at night
3-Core Supplement Protocol (Calcium Lactate + E-Z Mg + Nervagesic)

Product |
Suggested Dosage |
Key Rationale for Lower Extremity Cramps |
| 1 (Calcium Support) |
Calcium Lactate |
6–9 tablets daily (divided with meals; e.g., 3 morning, 3 evening) |
Highly absorbable calcium supports healthy muscle contraction/relaxation balance; key for preventing calf/foot cramps. |
| 2 (Magnesium Support) |
E-Z Mg™ |
3 tablets daily (divided with meals) |
Organic, plant-based magnesium (from Swiss chard & buckwheat) aids nerve/muscle function, reduces cramps/twitching, and balances calcium. |
| 3 (Nerve & Muscle Calm) |
Nervagesic |
2 tablets 2× daily (with meals) |
Herbal blend promotes relief of mild muscular cramps/spasms and temporary nervous discomfort—ideal for nighttime or stress-related leg cramps. |
Sample Daily Regimen
- Morning (with breakfast): Calcium Lactate (3 tabs) + E-Z Mg (2 tabs) + Nervagesic (2 tabs)
- Evening (with dinner/before bed): Calcium Lactate (3–6 tabs) + E-Z Mg (1 tab) + Nervagesic (2 tabs)
Duration & Monitoring
- Trial 4–8 weeks
