Pickle Juice Aids German Coach at World Cup
German World Cup referee Felix Zwayer experienced severe muscle cramps during a match between the United States and Australia due to high temperatures and physical exhaustion. He was saved by using "pickle juice," which contains vinegar and salt, and is believed to help stop cramps quickly by stimulating nerve receptors in the throat, allowing him to continue officiating after receiving first aid. This incident is an example of using drinks containing salt and vinegar to help treat muscle cramps during athletic activity.
