Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) and Vitamins: Relief in Glendale, Arizona
Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) affects about 5–10% of adults, causing an uncontrollable urge to move the legs at rest. Tingling, crawling sensations, and discomfort often disrupt sleep and daily life. Low dopamine, iron deficiency, and certain vitamin deficiencies can worsen symptoms.
Vitamins and Nutrients That May Help
-
Magnesium – supports nerve and muscle function.
-
Vitamin D – helps reduce RLS severity; aim for 1,500–2,000 IU daily through sunlight, fatty fish, fortified dairy, or supplements.
-
Vitamins C & E – antioxidants that may protect nerves and aid iron absorption.
-
Iron – low ferritin levels are linked to RLS; combine iron-rich foods with vitamin C for better absorption.
Lifestyle Tips
-
Avoid excitotoxins such as MSG and aspartame.
-
Maintain regular sleep schedules and daily exercise.
-
Address pregnancy or hormonal changes if they trigger RLS symptoms.
