Are You Smarter Than A 6th grader?

I looked up leg cramps and club soda and found some really interesting results.   This is a two part question.  Can something as simple as drinking a club soda help leg cramps?   If I does .....than why?

Maybe it's because it has potassium Sulfate or that carbon dioxide is release through the muscles.

Actually I drink tonic water occasionally for the leg cramps as it containes quinine. Quinine has had some medicinal use in reducing leg cramps. However quinine has it's own problems so I do not drink it very often.

Doing the night time leg cramp  hop hop hop
