After I tweeted about muscle spasms I was having, which I attributed to using 25 or more mg of methylcobalamin a day for over 5 years, I got a reply that talked about how methylcobalamin helps cells divide properly again, and this takes a lot more potassium, so potassium tends to run low and muscle spasms follow.

I ordered potassium, right away.

But while I was waiting for it to arrive I wondered what I could eat that would supply a lot of potassium... I wondered if aloe would.

Turns out aloe uses a lot of potassium, or interferes with it, I forget.

What is GREAT for potassium is Maca. I'd ordered it to use in my organic creamer, so I had some on hand, and gave it a try. Excellent results.

It's been several weeks now, and the spasms have gone from screaming painful, to nearly not happening at all.

So... if you're taking a lot of methylcobalamin (B12) it's a good idea to add some high potassium food to your diet.

Bananas are GREAT for it too! Eat a lot of bananas!

Good plan, except I'm housebound due to hardly being able to walk, i.e. it's REALLY hard.

So ordering Maca is an easy option for me. :-)

I'm pretty much in the same shape. I CAN get out once in awhile, but not often.

It's not much fun, is it. I get so tired of being in the house all the time, especially in the summer. I miss being able to plant flowers & stuff like that. Oh well. It could be worse I guess.

I hope you're feeling well today. Please take care of yourself! God bless! Hugs, Lee
