Trouble climbing stair this helped

I have found that magnesium helps to prevent cramp too.
I don't have stairs, but do leg exercises regularly.

This happened to my mum when she moved into a flat, she has no strength in her legs at all now. Re Magnesium, I take Osteocare liquid now which contains Calcium, Vit D, Magnesium & Zinc, it tastes ok and I have noticed a difference.

I agree about the Bungalow legs not only weak going up stairs but mine are unsightly, fat pads above my knees....ugh horrible. I don't really like bungalows although can see some advantages now we're in our 70's.

Use stairs at every opportunity, they are mobility saviours!
I worked in rehab and trust me the difference in people who had stairs in the home compared to those who didn’t was remarkable.

Wilco is one of the cheapest🙂

Holland and Barrett maybe, but I buy mine online from Natures Best. MagAsorb 375.

I have very bad muscle weakness as a result either of cancer or of chemo (had lots of tests and they still don’t know. Going upstairs is terrible (no choice though I live on first floor - 16 steps). I do exercises but maybe I should give magnesium a try
Pharmacy ? Holland and Barrett ?

1summer ....Magnesium benefits:

Recent work has shown thatgreater dietary intakes of magnesium are associated with higher muscle strength in older adults; therefore, magnesium concentrations in skeletal muscle could be crucial to maintaining skeletal muscle health in middle and older age

I think all these are good ideas.A while ago I told a friend we were thinking of downsizing and maybe getting a bungalow. She said oh no you will get “bungalow legs” a weakness in the legs which apparently is a common condition for people who don’t regularly climb stairs or do leg strengthening exercises.
Don’t know much about magnesium- how does that help.

I have bumped this because I think a few people could benefit.
