Mustard and leg cramps?


Question:
how does mustard get rid of leg cramps? i had really bad painfull cramps in almost my whole leg for most of the day after my hockey game (started about 4 hours later). it wasnt bad at first but eventually got worse before i went to bed. so i had a spoonful of mustard and it worked.

Answers:
Because of the turmeric in mustard. This yellow spice (also used in curry powder) has anti-inflammatory properties. Perhaps that is why it helped against leg cramps.
