Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) and Vitamins: How Enticare in Phoenix Can Help
Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) affects 5–10% of adults, causing uncomfortable urges to move the legs at rest, often disrupting sleep. RLS can be hereditary and linked to low dopamine, iron deficiency, or certain vitamin deficiencies.
Vitamins That May Help
- Magnesium: Supports muscle relaxation and may reduce RLS symptoms.
- Vitamin D: Low levels are associated with worse RLS; aim for 1,500–2,000 IU daily from sunlight, fatty fish, or fortified foods.
- Vitamins C & E: Antioxidant properties may help, and vitamin C improves iron absorption.
- Iron: Low ferritin levels often contribute to RLS; combine iron-rich foods with citrus for better absorption.
Lifestyle Tips
- Avoid excitotoxins like MSG and aspartame.
- Maintain regular sleep routines and a comfortable sleep environment.
