Charlie horses are usually caused by an imbalance of electrolytes. You can do a couple of things to help alleviate them. First, make sure that you are getting enough water to drink (6 - 8 oz glasses a day). Second, try adding more potassium to your diet (bananas or a potassium supplement). Third, try doing stretching exercises every day, even Yoga can help alot.
Good luck!

Be sure to try calcium supplements and Vit D as a complement. This relieves the leg muscle spasms, probably eliminating the problem.
