Occurring at nighttime and in the early morning, the so-called morningt leg cramps are most common during pregnancy as well as in middle age. In both cases, they usually happen when body chemistry suffers dramatic transformations: during pregnancy, because the mother's body has to share its stocks with the growing baby, and in middle age, because all body processes start to slow down resulting in occasional system failures.
The body may start losing considerable amounts of nutrients and minerals, resulting in nutrient deficiency which causes painful muscle cramps in one's legs and feet, usually in the early morning while the sufferer is still asleep or just on the brink of waking up. There may also be other, more serious reasons for morning leg cramps, which shouldn't be overlooked.
