Disclaimer: not a doctor, do some research and consult your MD. The first is just using a teaspoon of potassium citrate powder added to some sugar free drink mix and water; since muscle cramps are often a symptom of not enough potassium (check the powder labeling to help calculate how many mg of potassium you are getting, adjust dosage accordingly to come far far far under the LD50). The second is I use a mix of potassium citrate, calcium citrate, and magnesium citrate in a mix, two teaspoons in a drink. Same precautions as before apply, the point of these is to help adjust blood pH to help flush uric acid buildup faster. Also, hydration, which helps flush uric acid buildup too. The latter formulation lets me skimp on gout medication or go without it entirely for way longer than I would get away with otherwise while still being able to eat meat.
