What Causes Urge To Eat Raw Rice,ice Cubes And Cramps In Toes?

Since 2-3 months I have this urge to eat raw rice and chew on icecubes. Also I started to love eat just plain cooked rice. My whole life I had problems with cramps which I could get all over my body but mostly in my feet. Now its worse, my toes cramp easily every day. I am 50 yrs old, weight is 65 kg and length is 1.68 m. My whole life I have been regularly working out, lately it slowed down a bit. Do I suffer from lack of minerals or vitamins? I have lived in Europe most of my life, since 6 yrs I live in the tropics. Looking forward to hear your reply. Kind regards
