For leg cramps, I started to take magnesium glutamine and also tonic water - a glass before bed.
My father and mother in law, who never had cancer, swore by tonic water because it has quinine. Quinine is what soldiers in WW II took in the Pacific theatre for their ailments.

@beyourownadvocate My mother used to take quinine tablets for leg cramps. I found these drops work quite well for me. I don't think you can buy capsules any longer. I know tonic water is supposed to work too. I'm sure I would want to add some vodka.
