Tiny Tips: Tropical smoothie for muscle cramps


Experiencing muscle cramps, especially in your legs?  If stretching and soaking don't give you the relief you're looking for, try eating more acidic citrus fruits that contain potassium.  Potassium helps relieve muscle cramps, and high acid fruits help flush out the lactic acid built up in your muscles that may make your cramps worse.

For a super-yummy tropical smoothie, combine one banana, one small can of pineapple (chunks or rings, including the juice), about 1 cup of frozen mango, and about 3/4 cup of orange juice in a blender.  Blend until smooth.  This amount fills a 24 ounce cup almost to the top.  Drink with a straw to keep the high acid fruits from hurting the enamel on your teeth.

You should notice a decrease in crampy muscle soreness within a couple hours of drinking this super smoothie!
