Muscle cramps

Glossary

Muscle cramps are involuntary, painful contractions of a muscle or muscle group, often triggered by electrolyte deficiency, overexertion or dehydration.

In the context of Styrian pumpkin seed oil: Magnesium is found in the pumpkin seeds and, after pressing, above all in the protein-rich press cake. For chemical reasons, water-soluble minerals such as magnesium practically do not pass into the culinary oil. Pumpkin seed oil is a food and not a medicinal product; nutritional statements on magnesium therefore refer to the seeds or press cake, not to the culinary oil.
